Appetite

Appetite is the natural desire to eat, driven by signals from the brain, hormones, and the body's energy needs. It helps regulate when we feel hungry and want to consume food, ensuring the body gets enough nutrients to function properly. Factors like smell, taste, emotional state, and routine can influence appetite, along with biological mechanisms that signal fullness or hunger. Essentially, appetite guides us to eat when our energy stores are low and to stop when we've had enough, playing a vital role in maintaining overall health and energy balance.
