Book about psychology of hunger and food

By TrailBrook

Just wanted to clarify—I don’t have an eating disorder or anything. I’m mostly just really curious about hunger as a whole, like what it actually feels like and what’s going on in your body/brain when you’re hungry. Does anyone know a book about hunger and eating (and maybe fasting) that’s actually interesting and not super dry or overly emotional? I keep wondering why you can crave something sweet sometimes but not really feel it for healthier foods, and stuff like that. If anyone has a recommendation, I’d love it.
