[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As women age having a little body fat is actually better. My mother was extremely thin and last year in October was hospitalized and in the intensive care unit for several weeks. When she left the intensive care unit, her bodyweight had fallen to 72 pounds. It is imperative that you maintain some body fat, because in the event of a serious illness, it is all that your body has to survive on before it starts eating muscle. In her case, that is exactly what happened . And there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

My mom’s case After being discharged from the hospital for pneumonia, she spent five months inside of a rehab Nursing facility and She had to basically learn how to walk again. The reason was muscle wasting because she was bedridden and her body turned to eating her muscle tissue in order to survive. Because of her little bodyweight, she nearly died and is now permanently on a feeding tube.
For context when she went into the hospital, she weighed 110 pounds and was approximately 18% body fat. And postmenopausal.[/quote]
