Barely Eating Is Not Winning: Why Starving Backfires

<p>People tell me almost proudly that they barelyate anything today, like the less food they can get by on, the better the medication is working. That belief is quietly making a lot of people sick. In this episode I walk through what actually happens inside your body when almost no food comes in, why you end up cold, dizzy, exhausted, and irritable, and why a starving body holds onto weight instead of letting it go. This also explains why every crash diet you ever tried backfired, so it matters even if you&#39;ve never touched a medication. I&#39;m not your doctor, and this is education, notpersonal medical advice. </p>
