    Maybe you’ve never been hungry enough.

    If I had to guess the evolutionary mechanism here would be to stop animals from eating too quickly after a period of starvation.

      When I was doing chemo I welcomed the hunger specifically because it allayed any nausea I was getting. Honestly I think the other comment in this thread might be right about the dizziness because that has never nauseated me either. I personally would be inclined to think people are misinterpreting their low blood sugar, but we all have unique bodies that respond differently to their environments.
