Everything you need to know if you also feel hungry after training

 

You've just finished training and a feeling of hunger hits you . It is not something strange, but rather a common sensation, especially after having completed an intense training session . This phenomenon will depend on a series of factors related to the functioning of our body and its reaction to sports practice.

Furthermore, it must be taken into account that this increase in appetite after sports practice is not linked to the burning of calories , contrary to what we may think, but rather occurs due to a decrease in blood glucose (sugar) levels . that provide us with immediate energy, present in muscle glycogen. This decrease in sugar in our body causes the mobilization of our reserve and awakens this feeling of hunger in our brain.

It is not something that happens to all people equally, because on the other hand, we find other people for whom the practice of physical exercise does not cause this sensation or, quite the contrary, what it generates is a loss of appetite. As we anticipated, this is because physiological factors intervene that vary in each person . They influence, for example, age, sex, type of diet or sports activity that you do regularly. And to that we must also add the characteristics of the exercise , because depending on its intensity and duration, they influence the increase in appetite.

What if you eat after doing sports?

But let's focus on the case of those who are hungry: if we eat immediately after performing physical exercise, we must do so in a healthy way , not only with respect to the nutrients that we are going to incorporate, but also in terms of the way to do it. Taking this into account, the experts from the Nutrition Area of ​​Club Metropolitan offer us these recommendations on the diet to follow after the activity.

Can a hangover be avoided?

 A margarita by the pool, an ice-cold beer at a barbecue on a May holiday. You could say that summer is made for having a cold drink on a hot day. But why is drinking during the day any different? And is there any way to avoid a nighttime hangover ?

Perhaps not surprisingly, there have been no robust clinical trials evaluating the health effects of daytime alcohol consumption. But psychiatrists and alcohol experts say there are some unique factors that influence the difference between daytime drinking and nighttime drinking .

little control

At night, you may be more attentive to signs that it's time to stop, such as when dinner is over. But the novelty of having an alcoholic drink in the afternoon means people don't always control how much they consume, said Akhil Anand, a psychiatrist at the Cleveland Clinic .

If you drink throughout the day and aren't necessarily aware of where to get your next snack, it also makes sense that you don't have food in your stomach to help slow down the rate at which your body absorbs the alcohol, which means you're probably that you become more intoxicated in a shorter period of time .

It's hot

Drinking when it's sunny — especially in the summer — increases your chances of becoming dehydrated, and dehydration can intensify the effects of intoxication: You may feel fatigued, lightheaded, dizzy or simply out of control, said Sarah Andrews, associate professor of psychiatry and science. of Behavior at Johns Hopkins Medicine . On a sweaty day, you can lose more fluids than you replace, which means you also lose sodium and minerals that help your body function normally. And that's in addition to the dehydrating nature of alcohol itself, which acts as a diuretic and expels fluids from your body, causing you to urinate more frequently.

The hangover can come sooner

The sooner you start drinking, the sooner that feeling of hangover with dry mouth and headache will appear. A brunch with mimosas can translate into a dinnertime hangover , said Danesh Alam, an addiction psychiatrist at Northwestern Medicine, although a hangover is more likely to start first thing the next morning, when your blood alcohol content is higher. has returned to zero. Because daytime drinking can be so dehydrating, hangover symptoms are likely to be worse, Anand said.
