![]() out of your article...

Energy In (corrected for digestion) = (BMR/RMR + TEF + TEA + SPA/NEAT) + Change in Body Stores if you replace carbs with protein (same amount of calories), the left side of the equation stays the same or changes slightly due to disgestion issues. TEF goes up. Changes in Body Stores has to decrease (tissue loss) so the equation reamains balanced? correct? |

![]() the human body is an open system, and the first law of thermodynamics still applies.
"The First Law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; rather, the amount of energy lost in a steady state process cannot be greater than the amount of energy gained" Extra calories will always end up somewhere. it does not matter if you believe this is true or false, it will still be reality. |
