Question for a person smarter than I :D, Question relating to human behavior

[Lex]

Ello... a friend and I were having a discussion that prompted me to think upon a question I've had for awhile..

I've noticed that when I travel from polar elevations in a small number of hours... my appetite seems to become decreased for various lengths of time. I've asked other people about such a phenomenon... and they all concur with this observation.

Has there been any research done on this topic? And does it have anything to do with the central nervous system?

Thanks!

Would your friend be called Clark Kent by any chance?

Often when hiking, especially in the cold, one will get a second wind, where the body begins to burn body fats. This is a very rich source of fuel with moderate heat output. If one ate, their metabolism would change back to quick energy with higher heat output and it would take some time to get the more efficient fat metabolism going again The body started the conservative survival fire and will resist it being extinguished.

Thanks for the response, MDT.

Yes, actually. And I'm going down to Metropolis today to speak to Lois Lane about global warming over coffee.
