RE: The Minnesota Starvation Experiment
Nutrient density to eat the required amount of vitamins and minerals, is more important than eating calories, as you suggest, although both matter. I wonder how would we survive and be fit if all we ate were nutrient supplemental tablets? I don't think it is enough, as energy is a requirement for input/output in a body. Maybe if we were in a robot society where we did no physical labor at all LOL. Energy is important to get around and do things, do maintain muscle, etc.
Take care. Peace.
you can survive with no food for months, provided you drink water and you have sufficient fat on your body. and it's not like you're stuck to bed, but you can live a fairly active life like that. very few people do it nowadays. we are consumers...
I'd rather fast than consume products like 'soylent' or other 'total-meal-replacements'. it feels more 'natural' not to eat anything for a certain period of time than eating something that doesnt feel or taste like food. 'soylent' and other products remove the pleasure we get from eating. fasting makes you forget about it...anyways, thanks for your feedback
