My Interview With Shawn
The answer:
"One arises from the neck up, the other is a natural desire to nourish your body."
Listen for the Key Moment:
"An appetite is the sign of ..."
Rob Faigin of Natural Hormone Enhancement talks about two different ways to describe hunger as well, namely Hormonal Hunger vs Cravings.
Rob says
"... it may be helpful to think of 'Hunger' as a general craving for food, and a 'craving' as hunger for a particular kind of food. Giving in to Hunger/Cravings does not mean that you are weak; they are immensely powerful biological drives.
Willpower has limits, but there are no limits to hunger and cravings. Conventional dieting puts willpower and appetite on a collision course. Unfortunately, this is a case of the irresistible force against the movable object: willpower weakens as the fight wears on, but hunger and cravings become stronger and stronger."
Since being on the NHE eating plan for over 6 weeks now, I have to say that I have not had any cravings. Where I used to think of certain foods once in a while, now I just plod along doing my training, eating my protein/fat/veggies based meals and have no cravings. I suggested to a friend in Florida to try the NHE eating plan, and he as well said that just a few short days into the switch over from sugar burner to fat burner, his cravings as well disappeared.
I have not done an update on my Natural Hormone Enhancement (NHE) program for quite a few weeks now, so I'll be sure to do that soon.

Hi, I'm just wondering how the NHE eating plan worked out for you, there has been no updates since 2007, and I was wondering if it was not what you expected or found something else. I plan starting the NHE soon, Thank you.
