@FusionProgGuy @kevinnbass @The_Nutrivore The CICO hypothesis has been long been debunked! The human body is NOT a simple heat engine and has NO CALORIE sensor! It is under hormonal control with the major one being insulin! 1️⃣ https://t.co/gFUM8u9ajD 2️⃣ https://t.co/F94zRbwzUm 3️⃣ https://t.co/fFNaZs8ygZ
