    1 would kill you pretty quickly. You physically need to be able to store fat from food, plus it sounds like it might just delete all the fat you have, which would kill you immediately.

      I understood it as no excess fat. So maybe 5% but no less.

        Yeah a lot of this depends on whether it’s a monkey paw situation but as is the question isn’t what you want, it’s what the pill literally says it does.

      It’s also water store. You dehydrate very quickly without constantly drinking Gatorade. It’d have to be Gatorade or an equivalent for your body to absorb it fast enough. Or a saline IV.

      Hard to find now, but I’ve seen pictures of what people look like at extremely low (<4%) body fat. Every little detail in the muscle pops right out. It doesn’t look attractive or healthy in any way.
