I am not an expert to explain the body's mechanisms. And I don't have to, because I have professional advice from a fasting doc.

Also calling something "bullshit" by any means ... is not bullshitting?

If you get hung up by the names or terms I am sorry for you. The facts remain, whatever I call it.

First time I write about it in the net and I get heavy downvoting and pseudo arguments from ... whom?

Getting fasting advice on the net is mostly bullshit. Does anyone ask the net how to fart and shit?
