How are bears so huge? If I ate nothing but berries and salmon I’d probably be really slender.

    That’s not how fat works at all. Adipose tissue is formed to store energy (calories) and it does not matter what the source of that energy is. It can be saturated fat, unsaturated fat, various forms of carbs… when eating more calories than used the excess is saved for later in adipose tissue.

      I challenge you to a fun experiment. Go eat 5 gallons of ice cream. chart the calories and chart its metabolic effect on you and how much weight it makes you gain. Take before/after body measurements. Chart how long it takes you to burn that weight & inches off to get back to your baseline.

      after you’re back to your baseline, eat the equal amount of calories in salmon. chart the same data as first experiment. come back and give us the results.

      My hypothesis (from repeated personal experience) Is that ice cream has a much worse effect on the metabolism and body measurements. Salmon is much gentler and makes you feel healthier and look and feel better.

        I don’t know what you think science is but this is not it. Your experiment is like building a go kart and acting like you’re on par with auto-industry engineers.
