Hunger is a feeling of discomfort or weakness caused by lack of food. It is a physical sensation that can range from mild to intense. It typically begins with a feeling of emptiness in the stomach, followed by a craving for food. Hunger can also manifest as a headache, lightheadedness, or irritability. It can develop quickly or slowly, depending on the individual's nutritional needs. Hunger can be a sign of an underlying health condition, so it is important to speak with a medical professional if it persists.
