Yes my mistake. 13k calories is roughly 4 pounds.

>Hormones play an important role in how much fat is stored and how much your metabolism burns. And the type of food you eat can affect your hormones.

It doesn't matter if 100% of the calories he ate was turned into fat.

>how much your metabolism burns.

Eating sugar causes your metabolism to slow down by 4x? You'd die.

Bioavailability of calories isn't relevant here. There literally is not enough energy in that amount of sugar. Why does it matter if 80% of the available calories is absorbed of 90%?

"Insulin levels - when insulin levels are high energy is stored as fat."

It doesn't matter where energy is stored. 100% of it could have gone to fat.

The math does not add up.

40 grams of sugar does not have enough calories for you to gain 3 kilograms in 12 days, or 8.5 kilograms in 21 days.

Moreover, if he ate as much as the average American eats, how is it that the average American has not experienced what he has? The guy almost gained 1 pound a day.
