What Causes Hungry Feeling After Eating?

My friend is about 2 years older then me, I m 47, he is always eating, constantly tells me how hungry he is, he eats 4 times as much as I do yet he says he is starving. He is skinny but I need to fid out what can be done to fill his always empty stomach. I know about differences in metabolic rates but this is really crazy, he is constantly eating, he does nothing but lay around, no exercise. Where is all this food he is shoving down his throat going, I eat maybe 1 meal a day but he is constantly eating and always hungry. We share an apartment and he is eating everything. Is there any supplement he can take that will stop this bottomless pit he has for a stomach? Where does all the food he eats go and all I hear day after day is how hungry he is. He is eating me out of the house. What is wrong with him, it can t be normal. Pleas give me some advice.

Hi,

What the history you have given here for your friend it may not be due to any disease but it could be eating habit and it is pretty common phenomenon it is genetically constituted and not the disease condition still just to clear the doubt endocrine dysfunction needs to be ruled out and for that better to get done the plasma glucose test, routine blood test and other hormone profiles.

Hope this information helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
