Appetite Science

The only things I've ever found involving this topic involve how people overeat by substituting food for emotional needs that otherwise would go unmet.

In other words, psychology.

So that is little help with my current situation. I wake up early -- 4 a.m.-- as my roommate heads off for dialysis. I'm hungry. I restlessly toss and turn and get up and take a walk and get back in bed with light off.

It's 5 a.m. Now I am quite hungry.

Night nurse Chin comes in to apply my face cream. She is excited because she visits China soon for Spring Festival.

It's 6 a.m. Now I am ravenous. Another hour or so until breakfast.

What science is this?
