I 100% dont see why, if my body has a constant supply of calories, it cant keep itself perpetually warm. Maybe in some temperatures you can avoid freezing but eating, but in colder ones you cant keep yourself warm enough

yes, if the food is hot

depends on the temp
digestion itself takes care of about 60% of caloric intake iirc

Merely eating food won’t keep you warm. Your main thing is going to be shivering, and it’s not wildly effective against extreme cold.

>> No.10216485

>>10216345
Your body has other limitations like fatigue. The main method of generating large amounts of heat to fight the cold is through shivering, but your muscles will eventually tire and fail. You’ll also be unable to sleep, which will kill you even if you can maintain constant shivering for a couple of days.
