Question

Why do we feel hungry after a heavy physical exercise?

Open in App
Solution

When we perform heavy physical exercise, the body utilises large amount of energy in the form of stored food in our body. As large amounts of food reserves are burnt up to supply energy to our body during exercise, we feel hungry after the exercise.
