How food powers the body's metabolism
I have slowly gained 30kgs over 20 years. That&#x27;s 1.5kg a year, or about 4g per day.<p>4g per day is almost insignificant amount and yet it is enough to make you fat over long periods of time.<p>I challenge anybody to accurately measure their daily calories intage to within 4g of a target (forgetting for a moment that the target can&#x27;t be measured accurately either).<p>This suggests that while I was technically overeating -- by just couple of grams per day -- the problem lies entirely somewhere else -- in our ability to self regulate.
