Chapter 9, Problem 16SC
Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the statement ‘a diet too low is carbohydrates brings responses that are similar to fasting’ is true or false.

Concept Introduction:

Too low calories would lead to invariable weight loss or similar to fasting. The failure rate of less calorie as a primary strategy is an appalling 99%. Using a high rational model of obesity as a hormonal disorder leads to the hypothesis that increasing insulin should lead to permanent weight gain. Low carbohydrate diets and fasting accomplish the goal.
