I'm also not confident that the system works the same in mice and humans, since mice don't seem to be as well adapted to a high-fat diet as humans.Stephan Guyenethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218114625524777250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-70947105387380196122008-05-28T15:33:00.000-07:002008-05-28T15:33:00.000-07:00So if one were to take some "fat pills" (for examp...So if one were to take some "fat pills" (for example some fish oils, or concentrated omega-3/6 pills) 15 to 30 minutes before dinner, one may be able to leave the table more satisfied on less food?Billy Oblivionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16282343088921248885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-65297364992668737992008-05-14T14:37:00.000-07:002008-05-14T14:37:00.000-07:00I guess those papers you cited are further confirm...I guess those papers you cited are further confirmation that LF diets aren't the most effective strategy to counter obesity.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12825726029706055238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-19560215354017664352008-05-14T12:46:00.000-07:002008-05-14T12:46:00.000-07:00I don't know why.

Remember this data is in mice, who don't go hunting for fatty game.<BR/><BR/>I suspect the desensitization mechanism is absent or irrelevant in humans.

I'm curious, is it clear why the fat receptor cells become less sensitized after a few days of a high fat diet? <BR/><BR/>A total guess, but from an evolutionary standpoint, maybe it makes sense higher fat eating days would come and go in waves -- a few days here when a fatty animal is hunted, and then a few days without a lot of fat until another?<BR/><BR/>I don't know, I was busy picking berries apparently. Which isn't too different from how I turned out.Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217281333751656056noreply@blogger.com
