Here is a thought experiment:
If you eat only cheese for a week, zero carbohydrate cheese, and no protein. What will happen?
There is one theory that without protein or carbs to spike the insulin the fatty acids are not uptaken by the adipocytes, and you wont gain weight during the week long festival of cheese. Is this mechanistic theory credible?
Doesn’t cheese contain a lot of protein?
That’s a really good point. For this thought experiment I should have chosen something else like butter
