Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Knowing that the brain is over 50% fat, and that the myelin sheath of neurons is 70% fat, I would be cautious about trying to lose too much body fat, some brain and neural functions might go along with it.

The calorie restriction curves seem to indicate that benefits from calorie restriction will be achieved up to a 66% restriction in calories, and I have not even approached 50% restriction, but I'm sure that as I do I will continue to loose body fat. From measuring my body fat with the BodyTrends fat caliper I'm 5% body fat, 5'9 " and 144lbs, with muscle tone (I work out 3 times a week). >>> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
