another issue with starving yourself is the lack of nutrients and the effects it has on the bodies internal system. his central nervous system will go into a state of semi-shock, causing great amounts of catabolism, and peoples internal organs have actually shut down while on starvation diets because of the combo of the lack of nutrients and lack of energy to sustain them. now, putting that much stress on your nervous system and internal organs on top of adding clen to the mix is practically an attempt at suicide IMO.
your body can't run off of it's own bodyfat alone, which utilizes the fat oxidation process. if there's no blood glucose, muscle glycogen, or any food in the intestinal tract, your body WILL NOT burn fat and will only burn muscle as an energy source as a survival response. when it starts to run too low on muscle, then you're in for some serious issues.
as far as your other friend who did this and the doctor claims he's "healthy", doctors don't know "health" from a hole in the ground. all doctors know is how to diagnose problems and medicate them. the doctor isn't telling him about the permanent damage that guys starvation diet did to his internal organs cause his organs are still working, but i can assure you damage has been done. just as a smokers lungs still work, in an autopsy you can clearly observe the extent of damage their lungs received. he'll be doing that to his entire body.
if your friend actually believes a starvation diet will not cause any permanent damage and rip years off his life from the strain, he's living in pure ignorance. then again, to think this is a good idea in itself shows he's severely lacking in common sense and leaps before he looks. if he wants to lose weight that bad, tell him to simply cut the fat off himself with a knife. it would be far safer than the hairbrained idea he has right now. at least with that method, he'll most likely live.
