| | Starvation Response |
 | | Starvation induces many physiological and behavioral changes in the human body. | | | This response to starvation would increase the liklihood of survival in famine conditions where competition for resources would be intense. | | | Being aware of these adaptive responses to malnutrition is key to understanding the behaviors associated with anorexia nervosa. |

| | It is all very well to cry foul over the starvation deaths in Amlashol, but to remedy situations like this it is extremely important to understand the story of the exploitation in the tendu leaf trade. | | | But, as a Telegraph story of 1994 showed, the area’s starvation story is old and is not specific to any particular event, political or otherwise. | | | The Amlashol story will keep repeating itself as long as the relationship between the government and the people remain one between the helper and the helped. |

| | In an internal armed conflict, if the civilian population is suffering “undue hardship” due to a lack of food or medical supplies “essential to its survival,” relief actions “which are of an exclusively humanitarian and impartial nature” and conducted “without any adverse distinction” shall be undertaken subject to the the consent of the State involved. | | | If allowing the Serbs to take 30 percent of the relief supplies meant that they would let in the other 70 percent when, strictly speaking, their obligation to do so was not ironclad, it was better to give in. | | | The alternative might very well have been to allow the most vulnerable groups—the very old and the very young, in particular—to starve. |

| | Glycogen is a precious commodity and after 8-16 hours of starvation there is an increased breakdown of body fat. | | | Once the majority of fat is broken down the energy requirement are met by muscle breakdown but this will rapidly lead to death as vital muscles stop working. | | | After a couple of days of starvation the majority of the body’s energy requirements are met by the stored fat and the body’s glucose requirement is provided by the breakdown of muscle. |
