It actually does if you have a concussion, but that's a far cry from "sick." And it's more like reducing total recovery than brain damage.

I'm a physician and can't find a study verifying this claim anywhere.

Search "cognitive activity" rather than rest. Studies exist, but with differing etiologies and severities, actual recs are fuzzy.

Here we go: "Effect of Cognitive Activity Level on Duration of Post Concussion Symptoms."

I did find one with a null result, but they didn't have much power, and I wasn't clear on treatment fidelity. Still an active question.

Basically, the evidence is clear enough to say cognitive rest is beneficial, but the science isn't settled. It'll take time to get specific.

Can't be bothered to find it, but I confirm this. Higher metabolic demands on a stressed brain slow recovery. Try pubmed for source.

Overall weight yes, but saying specifically the belly is misinformation.

It is true that visceral fat tends to reduce before subcutaneous fat, but that still involves the overall burn and loss that you mentioned.

No it doesn't make sense. You don't burn fat in only one area of the body, you burn fat universally.

Unless you mean it will eliminate your belly fat *in the process of* reducing your overall body fat content, that is technically correct.
