Starvation and Muscle loss/gain
I was watching a documentary the other day about some guy that had been stranded in the woods for weeks and was VERY skinny when he got rescued. Obviously he was under nurished and ate very little while working more than normally. Ive always heard that when you get starved for days like that and you get skinny its not only the fat that your body uses, but also you lose muscle as well. I realize that you lose your muscles because your not providing the right caloric intake to support them but that tissue can be regained once your re-nurished and get back to exercising right? Its just something that i was wondering about. I wouldnt think its any different than being a couch potato other than it happens much quicker. What say you?
