One of the factors that may increase your desire to eat is if you are suffering from type 1- diabetes or what we call diabetes mellitus. Normally those who are in the beginning stage of diabetes feel excessive hunger. Intake of large amount of high glycemic index carbohydrates contributes in the shoot up of blood sugar as well as the level of insulin. These carbohydrates are being digested quickly which tend to increase hunger and at the same time the desire to eat also increases.

Hormonal imbalances may also cause polyphagia. Hyperthyroidism is one of the hormonal imbalances that cause excessive hunger. Another one is having a hyperadrenalism or an increase level of adrenal hormones increases your desire to eat. Most women are being affected by these hormonal imbalances especially during pregnancy. In some cases, women may experience Polyphagia during the menstrual cycle.

Anxiety and depression can also cause a high desire to eat. Many people tend to divert attention to eating especially if they are depressed. This is being done in order to avoid facing the real condition or situation they are in to. Sometimes even stress can cause excessive hunger. There are people who go into eating when they are fully stressed. Although there are some people who tend not to eat or can not eat a lot because of stressful situation.

Polyphagia is a medical condition that shows abnormality in a person’s strong desire to eat a lot. It is a condition wherein a person always feels like she or he needs to eat. It is an abnormal feeling of excessive hunger. In TCM, polyuria is attributed to excessive fire in the stomach.
