also this is your irregularly scheduled reminder that if you or anyone you know is hungry all the time despite eating normal or larger than normal amounts, get them fucking tested for celiac. it’s not on the standard symptoms list or at least it wasnt last i checked, but i was hungry for over a decade before i got diagnosed and went gluten free and learned what it feels like to be full (weird and kinda surreal). your kid says they’re always hungry? they try to sneak snacks all the time, eat too-large portions, never stop seeking out food? they’re not a glutton. something is wrong. go find out what it is.
So, the thing where lack-of-nutrition makes you hungry all the time, and screws with your metabolism, is an acutal thing worth being aware of. Note that this isn’t just a matter of calories; if you’re missing other nutrients, your body will know it needs more nutrients and tell you so. And it isn’t complex enough to express “I want more nutrients but we’re good on calories”.
So, yeah. Check stuff out with actual doctors and things.
