According to researchers at Scripps Research, neural circuits were identified that make mammals, including humans, want to eat more when exposed to cold temperatures. This phenomenon reveals a clear link between environmental temperature and appetite, answering the question: Does being hot or cold make you more hungry?

According to a 2023 study published in *Nature*, chilly conditions can make your stomach growl louder than a hot day. This happens because the body works harder to maintain its core temperature in the cold, increasing its energy demands and, as a result, making you hungrier.
