There is a word for the feeling of being so hungry that you start to get angry. There is a link between appetite and emotions found in the first study to measure this phenomenon.
The hungrier you are, the more likely you are to feel angry and upset. The effect is a valid one.
Most previous work on the connection between hunger and anger in people has been done in the lab, but Swami and his team wanted to see how strong the effect is in people as they go about their lives.
They asked 64 people from Germany, Austria and some other countries to use a phone app to fill in surveys about their emotions and how hungry they were for three weeks.
There was a correlation between people's hunger levels and their moods. They didn't feel as much pleasure when they were hungrier.
Hunger was associated with 56 per cent of the variance in feelings of Irritability.
When you feel hungry, you are more likely to see potentially negative contextual cues as negative. He says it could include feeling hot or being bumped.
According to Deanne Jade of the National Centre for Eating Disorders in the UK, low blood sugar could be related to the release of hormones such as cortisol, which can cause stress and fight-or-flight responses. She says that many people are sensitive to stress hormones. We get too focused on things. We can feel a lot of movement.
The phone apps used in the study could possibly affect what they are trying to measure. The anger might have been triggered by the text that said, "please complete the survey."
