Laws of physics aren't rewritten because people are hungry when they eat way too much sugar.

Of course meal plans are more complicated than just counting calories.

Obvious answer to this is that if you create overly simple model of human body so that you can apply the easiest law available without thinking, then you are not trying to deduce off laws of physics.

It is scientism and not a science.
