remember the time, when it was scientifically proven that women have smaller brains than men? Or that a human being will never be able to run a 100m in under 10 sec? Science has a tendency to be limited by its time. So whatever is a -limit- today, may as well be achievable in 10 years or so

So if I understand correctly: you can burn up to 5k calories daily (roughly) and maintain that indefinitely since that-s the threshold of your metabolism with a proper diet, but anything more then that will be unsustainable for long periods of time.
If I got that right, that-s pretty interesting.

Amazing, data shows: Metabolism, energy expenditures, high intensity, limit of expenditures, time vs. Intensity, endurance capacity, body burn during the day & to put calories back, Metabolic Rate limit, -what the body can handle over the long run-. When you have the GUTS, you can do it! --

I wonder what becomes possible if you feed people calories in a purer form, like straight sugar, or fat, or butter (along with some multivitamins, obviously, or even an IV or somesuch. Basically, I think the next question is -how effectively can we shortcut digestion? -

Human physiological limitations that permit development of obesity include a predilection to overeat palatable diets, inability to directly detect energy eaten or expended, a large capacity for fat storage, and the difficulty of losing body fat

Wasn't there a ton of news about how Michael Phelps consumed upwards of 10, 000 Calories a day when he was a the peak of his Olympic training? Is there data on athletes on his level that can explain that amount of caloric consumption?

What about extreme strongman competitors, like the world strongest man? Those guys eat 15. 000cal pr day.
It seems like this study only looks at runners and light weight athletes,
I would be interested to find out

For experts you should get a fashion designer looking at stuff in films and to extend the videos get like specific fashion designers like one would be plastic and another maybe fur or something! You-d get more views

So they find a pregnant woman sitting on the sofa and stuffing her face with bonbons while watching Oprah comparable to ultramarathoners and triathletes. Nope, don't see the correlation.

What about competitive eaters consuming >10, 000 Calories? Is the implication that their digestive system is just unable to process more than half of that before it becomes waste?
