I don’t understand how some people believe that just because fat is a source of energy and can be stored or contribute to weight gain, this somehow debunks the carbohydrate-insulin model (CIM). These are two different concepts—it’s like comparing apples and oranges. Few physiological models work as consistently in real life as the CIM. While it’s not the whole picture, it provides a clear view of the overall puzzle 🧩, even if a few pieces—like the roles of excess fat and other hormones—are still missing.
