Why am I so hungry when I'm hungover?!


Question:

Answers:
You body is repairing the damage done to your body by the over consumption of alchohol. Basically you drank too much (or you wouldn't have a hang over) and your body needs fuel to repair.

The technical word for the condition is hypoglycemia or a low ammount of sugar in the blood stream. However combined with this is dehydration.

Your best bet is to drink less, (enough to feel good, but not enough to make you pass out, drool, or otherwise lose control of yourself and your body), drink LOTS of water, and start off on bread in the morning.

Don't jump straight into chili dogs and pork rinds when you have a hangover, be gentle. or you could get sick :)

Other Answers:
Alcohol causes hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) which leads to hunger.
