| Oct 12, 2017 at 1:35 | comment | added | user6760 | leptin is the hormone responsible for feeling hungry and it is released by fat cells due to presence of insulin(when you digest food particularly carbohydrates), however we face a different problem which is the nasty reward system. Both dopamine(motivation) and serotonin(cork/plug) are responsible for rewarding you while punishing the body(making it rounder), and there are other important factors I can't cover(just too many) in the comment due to words limit. | |

| Oct 11, 2017 at 23:38 | comment | added | Cort Ammon | We do, however, sample the food's content. We do so with our eyes and with our nose. Our brain puts together a remarkably good model of the content of each meal before we even take a bite. | |
| Oct 11, 2017 at 23:37 | comment | added | Cort Ammon | Also, we don't have a daily caloric requirement. We survive on a vast range of caloric intakes, from starvation in the 800 Calorie range up to Michael Phelps consuming 8,000 to 10,000 Calories a day before the Beijing Olympics. The body doesn't have a hard and fast input. It takes what it can get, and modifies how much effort it expends in response. | |
| Oct 11, 2017 at 23:26 | comment | added | Pleiades | Early civilizations don't have constant or stable food supplies year-round, which means caloric intake is going to fluctuate anyway. When intakes are lower, that's when you fall back on your reserves to survive through until spring. In other words, I can't really see how this would come about so early unless your race has a constant, stable food supply, which isn't typical of hunter-gatherer societies at all. (2/2) | |
| Oct 11, 2017 at 23:25 | comment | added | Pleiades | I don't know that they would in their hunter-gatherer phase. Like you said, hunter-gatherer societies typically try to build up stores of food and energy because of how limited food supplies can be. I don't know that you would necessarily see this kind of behavior as an evolutionary trait either. Monitoring caloric intake is useful in modern human societies because of how much excess food we have that's high in sugars, salts, and fats. We're hard-wired to like those things, and so are many of our animal friends because we can store those nutrients for later. (1/2) | |
