A member asked:
If you eat under 200 calories a day, is this an eating disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This is the calorie load I would use for a 3 pound premi. If an adult uses this as a diet, it is guaranteed to lead to the breaking down of the persons fat/muscle and other tissues and eventually lead to death.
