♥ Learnt new things...
A person with low set-point eats a very rich meal. What normally happens next?
What is low set-point??
A person with low set point, means that the body perceives that there is little, eg. food, or still hungry... So, the action is to eat more.. Set point in general is what our biological systems use to monitor whether something in our body is enough or not..
Well.. I finally understand what it means liao.. Hehe.. = pp
The answer is.... The body temperature rises... The body temperature increases as one of several compensatory mechanisms for burning off the extra calories...which makes it hard for people like this to gain weight.
