Tooth brushing = hungry

Posted by Emme on July 22, 2004, at 23:33:13

Okay, here's mystery for you. This happens night after night. It's getting late. I'm not hungry, so I think I'm done eating for the night and it's time to brush and floss. I brush and floss. Presto! I'm hungry. Now, maybe it's psychological: it's inconvenient to re-brush, therefore I want to eat. Kind of like itching when your hands are tied up.

Or....is there some sort of physiologic thing that happens as a result of opening your mouth and probably excreting some saliva as you brush.

Anybody want to have some fun figuring this out?
