The Impact of Illness on Appetite and Body Shape: Lessons from Nature

The Impact of Health on Appetite and Body Shape

In a world where the pressure to maintain a certain body shape is ubiquitous, a thought-provoking quote from a book caught our attention: “Humans should have a thin body shape, so fat people usually indicate sub-health.”

As the winter season approaches, many individuals in our social circles have fallen victim to various colds, resulting in lingering symptoms such as loss of taste and smell, leading to decreased appetites and food intake.

Natural Predation and Eating Habits

This situation prompts a reflection on the eating habits of animals in nature, who consume “prey” to stave off hunger and obtain essential nutrients. The notion that the act of consumption is primarily driven by the need to satisfy hunger raises questions about the relationship between appetite and body shape.

If the fundamental purpose of consuming food is to alleviate hunger, then the desire for culinary delights and excessive caloric intake becomes irrelevant. In essence, the natural inclination would be to cease eating once the hunger has been satisfied, highlighting the significance of mindful eating.

The correlation between nutrient consumption, caloric intake, and the resultant body shape is brought into focus, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a balanced and healthy diet to reflect the “normal appearance of each creature.”

Individual Exceptions and Health

While these observations hold true in a general context, it is crucial to acknowledge the presence of exceptions and external factors that can impact an individual’s appetite and body shape. In the case of recovering from a cold, the imbalanced sense of taste and smell can lead individuals to revert to their original food intake needs, highlighting the dynamic nature of health and its influence on eating patterns.

In conclusion, the concept of a “normal” body shape remains synonymous with a healthy state across all living beings, underscoring the intricate relationship between health, appetite, and body morphology.

I saw a saying in a book once: “‘Humans should have a thin body shape, so fat people usually indicate sub-health.

Recently, many relatives and friends around me have suffered from different colds, more or less.Loss of taste and smellThe sequelae; then because of their bad taste, they eat less and their appetite also decreases a lot.

So it reminds me of,

Animals (consumers) in nature,

It can only eat “prey” that it can prey on (ingest).

“Prey” is another creature.

All prey should be “original”.

What are the prerequisites for predation requirements?

It’s to stave off hunger (and get nutrients by the way)!

So when you catch prey and eat the original “food”, will it taste good?

If the prerequisite for predation is to “quench hunger” and you eat uneaten food, then you stop eating when you are “no longer hungry”, right?

Because the purpose of alleviating hunger has been achieved!

if so,

You will not eat just for the deliciousness of the food,

You will not eat food just to try it.

You won’t eat just to get your money back if you’re full.

You will not consume too many nutrients and calories.

It will not accumulate too many nutrients and calories.

Therefore, the shape of the body will faithfully represent “the normal appearance of each creature.”

# The human world is full of exceptions

#After catching a cold, the sense of taste and smell is imbalanced, causing people to return to the state of original food intake needs.

All living things have a “normal” body shape, which is a healthy state.
