RE: Treating Obesity with Total Fasting - [1966 Experiments]

I'm curious about the deaths though. Was it primarily due to the precarious condition of the patients due to their secondary symptoms? I suppose I should read the paper for more information.

Thanks for sharing, rather interesting if ethically dubious way of treating extreme weight gain.

Sort:  

in this paper - none of the subjects died. in other papers, it was mostly due to complications and poor health beforehand...
