A member asked:
I'm curious what could happen if you stop eating for 3 days?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not eating: You will probably run out of your reserve carbohydrate. Your liver and kidneys will start making glucose from fat ; so you will start losing fat. If you don't have any fat, then your muscle proteins will also break down to glucose.
