So the assumption here is that the pipeline for energy storage (including the human digestive system, insulin machinery and adipose tissue) converts calories to fat mass at a constant rate of efficiency, regardless of whether you're currently underweight, or at 350% of healthy bodyweight. Is there any human-built energy storage system that exhibits this type of performance? Do we really think that the human body exhibits it?
