Everyone says it's simply CICO and I do believe that.But, I've always wondered like, does your body take in 100% of the calories from the food?Or does some of it go to waste and come out as well... Shit.Surely it also depends on the type of food. Like maybe carbs are bad for you because your body is very efficient at taking calories from it?Am I on to something or just stupid
>>75482641Your intuition is right. Carbs are really efficient to digest compared to fat and protein. Your body spend more energy to break down fat and protein.
>>75482641Your intestines come close enough to absorbing all of the nutrients to not matter. Your body will slow down intestinal transit to give it time to absorb. Different nutrients (glucose, fructose, fats, amino acids, etc) have different absorption rates. If you binge so much the slower motility still can't keep up and you "cap" the absorption rates, then some of it will pass. You'll know it though. Unabsorbed proteins and fats in your shit smell awful, and the fat looks like you dropped oil in the toilet. Unabsorbed sugars in your shit give it a sort of sweet smell.But that's the thing, you'd have to eat a ton to get to that point. You can eat more than enough to get fat without ever exceeding your body's ability to absorb it all.
>>75482657Length of intestine matters too. Part of gastric bypass surgery is removing a length of the small intestine. Less time in the tube (because its shorter), less that can be absorbed.
