      Yeah, and it might be different from person to person.

      I’ve most definitely been more than hungry enough (starving myself to the point of losing my sense of hunger for 2.5 years), and yet I cannot honestly say I’d ever been “nauseous” from it.

      Dizzy, disoriented, yes. But nausea very very rarely happens to me, in extreme, prolonged, vehicle-related circumstances, or sickness for example.

      I wonder if nausea is just a consequence of the dizziness, in people that do get nauseous from being dizzy, instead of a direct consequence of metabolism.

        You will definitely feel something akin to nausea if you fully deplete your glycogen stores, which is a much more extreme short term shock to the gut (long distance runners know the feeling). Although if you consider nausea to only mean feeling like throwing up, maybe you wouldn’t even call it nausea if you don’t get that particular symptom.

          Long distance runner here. Never felt nausea after a run. Intense hunger yes, feeling sick no. My ex used to feel sick if she was just late for a meal. I’d never encountered that in somebody before. I just assumed that she was wired up incorrectly like that thing where some people sneeze if they step into bright sunlight.
