A report examining the link between hunger and negative emotions was published Wednesday in the journal Polls One. 

 The connection between hunger and anger has long been called the colloquial English term "hangry.

" This term or word is a combination of "Hunger and Angry". This research has found a link between feelings of hunger, anger and irritability, and thus lends credibility to the term hangover.

 What has the research found?

 The study examined the emotional states of 64 participants from Central Europe. For 21 days, five conditions of the people involved in this research were monitored. 

 These states were hunger, anger, irritability, happiness and excitement. The study found that hunger increases feelings of anger and irritability, as opposed to feelings of happiness.

What is the connection between hunger and anger?

 More research is needed on how the relationship between hunger and irritability is established and how the body's hormones work in this state. 

 "One possible explanation could be that the brain's ability to regulate emotions decreases after low blood sugar," study author Viren Swamy told the German news agency DPA.

 Another possibility is that humans react differently to external factors when they are hungry and become anxious more quickly.

 According to the researchers, "Both of the above-mentioned elements may be responsible for this situation."

 It has also been said that psychological factors play a greater role in the occurrence of anger during hunger.

 However, many other researchers are skeptical about the link between hunger and anger.

 Johann Christoph Cloutier, a professor of nutrition and health psychology at Fulda University in Germany, has expressed doubts about the significance of this research.

 Professor Cloutier told news agency dpa that "cause and effect" cannot be separated when it comes to the relationship between hunger and anger, and that hunger itself can be a manifestation of anger.
