The human body burns fats to supply the energy to contract and relax muscles? (whereas the electrical energy needed for neural activity is provided by burning sugar). Unfortunately what seems to have been overlooked, is that humans come in two types with two types of 'engine'. Those with an 'engine' which can burn either type of fat and those whose 'engine' is tuned to run at its most efficient on animal fat alone. |

I let it remain on the page because i had never heard of _that_ strange theory before, and there are a couple of actual factoids in it...I'll extract them and add to the article. --[[Anders Törlind]] Animal fat and vegetable fat. Where do you put fats stored by other sorts of living things - fungi and protozoa? : Is there a chemical difference between these types of fat? |
