Are blood toxins making me fat?

I was reading an article about the Biosphere 2 project... and apparently the participants were on an extremely calorie restricted diet. Then this... He (The doctor) discovered that their blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol counts did indeed drop to healthier levels...though an unanticipated side effect of this was that their blood was awash with the toxins that had been stored in their rapidly dissolving body fat. -- Is this a real thing? How does one measure blood toxicity? If it's an analogy of some sort, what might they be referring to?
