philip young asked the Naked Scientists:
My wife has difficulty losing weight and I notice many people who diet seem to have a more difficult time in losing weight.
Does the body's metabolic rate change when there are less calories available in a way to adapt to the environmental conditions?
Do we have a starvation mode, metabolically?
thanks
What do you think?
