A Refreshing Summer Elixir, Your Tasty Solution to Summer Apathy
Why Does Summer Kill Your Appetite?
Ever find yourself less hungry during those hot summer months? You're not alone! Here are five common reasons why people often lose their appetite when the temperature rises:
- Heat: High temperatures can suppress appetite.
- Dehydration: Sometimes thirst masks itself as a lack of hunger.
- Changes in Routine: Summer often brings travel and disrupted schedules.
- Increased Activity: Burning more calories doesn't always translate to increased hunger; sometimes it leads to fatigue.
- Preference for Lighter Foods: We naturally crave salads and fruits, which are often less calorie-dense than winter comfort foods.
Sick Day Struggles: When Food Is the Last Thing on Your Mind
Feeling under the weather? A loss of appetite is a classic symptom. Here's what people often do when they're sick and struggling to eat:
-
Skip Meals: Entire meals get missed due to nausea or lack of interest.
-
Stick to Bland Foods: Toast, crackers, and plain rice become staples.
-
Force Themselves to Eat: Leading to discomfort and potentially worsening nausea.
-
Rely on Sugary Drinks: Seeking quick energy, but often causing sugar crashes.
-
Ignore Nutritional Needs: Focusing solely on getting something down, regardless of its value.
