While undergoing a tonsillectomy, young Lionel - called Leibel or Leibele by his family - was badly overanesthetized.
-
As Leibel and colleagues demonstrated in a now classic paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine back in 1995, even a 5 or 10% weight loss can lead to a rapid and sometimes drastic reduction in total energy expenditure, thereby very quickly canceling out the energy deficit created by caloric restriction.
-
In his talk Leibel attributed this weight-loss-associated fall in energy expenditure to an “asymmetric” physiological response to leptin.
-
In his presentation, Leibel described how administration of low-dose leptin, just enough to raise leptin back to the levels that existed prior to weight loss, can prevent this anabolic and orexogenic response.
-
And if Leibel and Hirsch had used them, they might have found that they stay relatively lean on a low carb diet and put on weight easily on a high carb diet.

Moreover, only one of Ahrens's subjects was obese, which means, as Leibel and Hirsch explain, that similar results might not have been obtained in a group of obese individuals or lean individuals susceptible to obesity.

Rudolph Leibel and Jules Hirsch did not, as Kolata says, do the studies in the 1950s and '60s, when Leibel would have still been making his way from grade school through medical school.
