      there’s a difference between “restricting calories” and “eating so little that you lack almost all the macro/micronutrients necessary for a properly functioning body”

      one can have a calorie restrictive diet and still be eating junk food too

      Calories are just a unit of energy - what you consume usually matters more than how many calories you consume

        Yeah but that’s not the point of the comment you’re replying to, which is stating a simple fact that is unchanged despite your argument.
