What happens if you don't eat enough calories in a day?

Answer 1

To begin with, your body will simply go to the stored energy and calories it has (stored in fat cells) in the body. Once this is happening, other things may begin to also happen if not enough calories still aren't coming in daily...

* Reduction of fat

* Lower body temperature (trying to conserve heat energy)

* Hair loss

* Dry skin

* Brittle nails, discolored nails (nutrients taken out)

* Loss of menstrual cycle (for women, trying to conserve nutrients and energy)

* Dizziness

* Fatigue
