Oh, it's not that I find it controversial, favor an alternative or object to any of it. It seemed quite compelling, and I'm open to it. It's just that I've only read a single book on the topic, and health and physiology are fiendishly complex, and I long ago discovered that a single book, even if compelling and seemingly supported, may still not represent the whole picture.

I am sure for a claim of this magnitude, there would be plenty of references other than the book which shows our bodies somehow magically adopt and regain the lost weight. The burden of proof is on you to support this false claim

The burden of proof is on me to support what "false" claim? That I read the book? That I summarized my recollections accurately? That it's the only book on the topic I've read?

To clarify, I am not Jason Fung, the author of the book that I summarized, and I specifically said I don't endorse the content. I only recounted it because ancestor comments seemed confused about the book's central tenant, which I happen to have read.
