Obviously children suffer from poor nutrition too, they become obese, they can be malnourished and what not.
And yet to be it looks like often they are more “resistant” to bed food. They eat too much in one sitting? No stomach ache. They eat horribly for months? Blood test would still give decent results. They don’t eat vegetables and fruits? Still no problems pooing.
What makes them so flexible and robust in their diet?

Calories In > Calories Out
Calories out has a bunch of factors, children especially are growing, uses calories, they tend to be more active, uses calories, they’re forced to be active for schooling (physical education etc). It’s also worth noting that as an ex teacher, a lot of kids with bad eating habits/bad sleeping schedules were the kids who were ill the most. A cold there, falling asleep in class, complaining about insomnia (yeah it’s totally not the redbull you drank at 9pm).
Bodies pretty resilient, the more extended punishment the worse the results, and kids do face consequences for bad habits.
