Body fat is the body's lowest-priority employee in a deficit

Atom · refreshed Search related

Body fat sits at the bottom of the body's breakdown hierarchy because, metabolically speaking, it has the least going on. When the body's 'CEO' finally reaches fat after exhausting the nervous system, muscle, and organs, the conversation goes: 'what are you up to? nothing. got any calories? what are you doing with them? nothing. give it up.' Fat is the body's idle reserve, not an active participant in daily work.
