What are some long term effects on the body with excessive exercise and low calorie intake?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Danger!,,,: Be careful. Health is balance. If you burn more energy then you take in your body must break down something for energy. Frequently the goal is fat loss; however, if done wrong, you will lose muscle mass, bone, and potentially get fractures and damage to your organs. Do all in moderation!
