I'm sorry but in the Health and fitness community this has been disproven time and time again. Someone can fix their sleep and eat at their bmr with good foods and still lose heaps of weight. See good calories bad calories by Gary taubes
- niels_olson 16y agoBasal metabolic rate is something developed in hospitals for bed-ridden patients on total parenteral nutrition. It is the calories you burn just staying alive. If you, a healthy person walking around, eats at your BMR, you will, definitely, loose a heap of weight. However, the BMR for the average human is quite low. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_metabolic_rate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_metabolic_rate Also, on brief review, Taubes appear to thoroughly misunderstand the issue on a variety of levels. I'm going through more of his material, if I am mistaken, I will report my error.
