When we're stressed, our body goes into a special mode called 'fight or flight.' This makes us feel like we need to eat more, sometimes even when we don't want to. Imagine being chased by a bear and needing energy fast! That's how your brain feels when you're under pressure.
Examples
- You're stuck in a long meeting and suddenly feel like you need a snack.
- Your stomach growls loudly during an important test.
- You eat a whole bag of chips before bed because your brain thinks it’s being chased by a bear.
