On it, the girl claims to have an extremely rare syndrome in which it is impossible to gain weight. She also claims to have zero percent body fat.
Doesn’t this go against human physiology. Shouldn’t she be dead? I was always under the impression that the body requires some essential body fat for life functions…
Looking for someone with more medical knowledge to shed some light on this…
I’ve always heard that it’s impossible to be under 4% due to the essential fat that cushions organs and such… (or something like that,… I’m kinda talking out my ass here -lol)

not impossible, but not the healthiest either.
I did a skinfold (of course this doesn’t measure the fat around the organs like you mentioned) on an employee. Sum of 6 site skinfold was 2.5%. I was basically just pinching skin. This was his every day conditioning too. Bastard. Was around 165 lbs.

Bullshit, get DEXA reading. Also, get the woman AAS. I call horse poo on that story.
I don’t get it. I want to follow her around all day and watch her eat “whatever she wants.” I’m guessing it would be a powdered doughnut for breakfast, bag of chips for lunch, and maybe a hot dog for supper? Or maybe she skips breakfast because she doesn’t want anything. I call BS. Somebody give that woman a cheeseburger.
