Hi all

Some time ago i asked a question about starvation mode and how quickly your body goes into starvation mode and i didn't really get an answer. This is a very good article and pod cast on it which kind of put my mind at ease. hope this helps anyone else who has this question :)

    Yes, it is not that easy to go into starvation mode.

    That should be common sense about how the human body is designed to store fat for times of famine. In modern times, this means going on a diet and restricting intake.
