What is the difference between hunger and appetite?

It's easy to forget or ignore the difference between hunger and appetite. Each one of us is programmed to be hungry when our bodies need nutrients to survive; it's experienced as a drive to find food, and if we don't satisfy that need we'll feel an unpleasant sensation.

This explains how one person can choose to eat poorly while another person chooses nutrient-rich foods when hunger strikes.

Anyone who has ignored hunger or over responded to it knows what having an appetite out of control can be like. It's what leads to ingrained eating behaviors that lead to problems with weight.
