Why lying on the back may ease nausea
The answer notes that lying on the back does not relieve all nausea. Nausea can stem from stomach or organ disturbances, brain or balance mechanisms, seasickness, emotional stress, fevers, infections, or pregnancy. Relief from rest occurs because rest slows metabolism and improves many symptoms.
Understanding Starvation and Safe Weight Loss Limits
Studies show glycogen exhaustion during starvation followed by fat use and then protein loss, harming health. Ketosis arises from sugar deprivation. After refeeding the body needs three times daily nitrogen and twice daily carbon to reestablish balance. Rapid weight loss is risky and best guided by professionals with limits around two pounds per week.
