Yeah. It’s The Sun and they put ‘dies of starvation’ in quotes. They are presenting rumors as facts (again).
Ah, thank you. Was very confused and I am relieved to find that eating food of any kind still does not cause the body to starve. Although honestly, in this damn timeline, i would just shrug at this point
Except it does when you eat nothing but carbs and fiber with little to no fat and protein. You can be vegan all you want, but ignoring basic nutrition will always result in disaster.
Not sure what you’re implying; there are many fruits with fat and protein. Or do you just mean in the context of the comment you quoted?
You can’t get all the nutrients needed from just fruit. This is fact. Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.
Ah, moving the goalposts now. You didn’t say nutrients before; you said “fat and protein” specifically.
A major part of their “nutrients” point is fats and proteins, read the last reply again.
Oh I read it. That doesn’t change the fact that that’s not what they said at first.
Nothing I said changed…
In the article it says she eats sunflower seed sprouts. A cursory google search says these are a complete protein containing all the essential amino acids.
It might be possible to live off fruit, but in the end, “food restriction resulting in significantly low body weight” is the definition of anorexia.
I don’t claim to know if she put her health in a compromised state or not, but look at recent pictures.
