It is physiological

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for your query..

This phenomenon is physiological that is normal. After swallowing food,digestive hormones and enzymes are secreted in stomach. The effect of food itself and these hormones and enzymes causes the stomach to churn. This feels like a feeling of hunger. This does not mean that you eat something at this time. You let the churning subside.

Hope it clears your doubt
Let me know if I can assist you further.
