Just thinking about food sends signals to your digestive organs to prepare them for a meal. These signals not only step up the intensity and frequency of contractions by the stomach and intestines - they also stimulate them to secrete digestive juices.

Even if there's no food your stomach is still working if you're thinking about eating!

Your stomach hurts when you don't eat because your body releases chemicals which begin to burn up your muscles instead of fat. The chemicals will cause other signs like pain in the stomach and maybe nausea. The pain is quite a lot like a burning feeling or as people call a sour stomach.

Yes especially if you have a sensitive stomach or have waited too long to eat. When you do eat, start slow. Don't gorge yourself. It only makes it worse.

When your stomach growls, your stomach has acids, that pour down. It means it's getting ready for the food. But before it gets ready, you smell food. BUT IT AINT' THERE IN YOUR STOMACH!
