i found this article stating that this two things are the same based on a medical dictionary but they differ in meaning in english dictionary.
I have found this in one article entitled "Hunger vs Appetite" by "professor Gary Egger" on the website "Medical Observer" and it is about the difference between hunger and appetite. And yes those two are entirely different things. According to the article it stated that:
"...It doesn't take a degree in English literature to understand that 'need' and 'desire' are two separate things, and that a misunderstanding of this could be significant in any health prescription."
This sentence is true because as I wrote in the upper part of my blog post if you look at the English dictionary you will find a difference with hunger and appetite in terms of one specific word. Hunger is the NEED for food while appetite is the DESIRE of food. Here is another definition of hunger given by the article:
"...Basically, Hunger is the biological need to have to eat. It is a constant, urging drive to seek out food which doesn't go away with distraction."
Again hunger is the need to eat. Just imagine life without being hungry, everyone would be freakin thin! I would LOVE IT :D Being hungry is needed by all people, i mean else would we know when to eat? What if we don't have a clock an don't know the time then it's up to our stomachs to tell us when to eat by grumbling our tummies. Being hungry is normal and if you experience hunger then congratulation! It means you are a human being. The article also stated the meaning of appetite:
"...Appetite on the other hand, is a learned desire to want eat, that develops largely through learning. It can go away when distracted and is therefor generally easier to deal with genuine hunger when trying to reduce one's food intake."
Appetite is the desire to eat meaning even if we don't get hungry we still choose to eat because of our appetites. It also state there that appetite can be distracted while going back to Hunger it can't be distracted, anyway by distracted i mean you can keep your mind occupied until your appetite gone like watching TV, playing computer games, basketball and etc. and it is true that appetite is much easier to handle because you can control your appetite but not your hunger.
Hunger and appetite might be two different things but they are needed for a healthy body. Appetite can ruin your body figure if you let your appetite take over your body but sometimes appetite is a great way to waste your time, why? Eating is good for the body and it can really pass the time.
