Rejected petition investigate the starvation response that returns all the weight we lose on a diet.

More details

The government needs to investigate the starvation response that returns all the weight we lose on a diet. The starvation response is built into our genes. People are blamed if they put the weight that they have lost on a diet back on again, but it is not their fault. The government needs to search for a way to lose weight that does not activate the starvation response.
