Every day at three or four o’clock in the afternoon hungry may be dietary structure is unreasonable, stomach peristalsis increased fast, gastritis and other factors caused by.
1. Irrational dietary structure: Sugars, fats and proteins have different emptying times in the stomach, with sugars having a shorter emptying time and proteins and fats having a longer emptying time. If you eat less fat and protein, the stomach will have emptied around 3 or 4 pm, which may lead to hunger at 3 or 4 pm every day.
2. Increased peristalsis: Food that enters the stomach needs to pass through the peristalsis of the stomach into the intestines. If gastric peristalsis increases, the stomach contents may enter the intestines too early, and the stomach empties too early, which may lead to hunger at 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. every day.
3. Gastritis: When inflammation occurs in the gastric mucosa, the inflammation stimulates the gastrointestinal peristalsis to accelerate, and then hunger may occur. Gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori infection may sometimes have increased gastric motility and nonspecific symptoms such as early satiety and easy hunger.
The occurrence of hunger at 3 or 4 p.m. every day may also be due to diabetes, hyperthyroidism, etc., and the diet may be adjusted appropriately. If the symptoms persist, you should seek medical attention, complete the relevant examinations under the guidance of the doctor, clarify the cause of the disease, and actively treat it.
