Advantages For Hunger

One of the effect of less eating is purity of heart and insight,
because, over-eating and fullness creates a state similar to drunkenness within a human being which slows down his sense of perception, reducing his power of quick grasping, thus, ultimately resulting in his heart's blindness. 

Opposite to that, hunger results in the mind becoming sharp, bestows comprehension upon conscience, thus, making the heart readied for enlightenment. In this regard the following tradition has been narrated from the Holy Prophet [s]:

"Whoever keeps his stomach hungry his thinking culminates to
the highest level, thus, making his reflections stronger.
"
