Actually, I wasn't talking about the bars (when I referred to there being 1 gram of glycerol for every 3 grams of fat). You misunderstood completely.

As for semantics, in science, there are many words because there are many processes... you should understand this. It is the readers here that may not understand nor be bothered to read through your lengthy references but take what you say at face value.

Glycerol is biochemically and legally a carbohydrate. There is dispute over whether it is a polyol as are maltitol, lactitol and the other *-ols, but nonetheless and whether you personally agree or not, it is biochemically and legally a carbohydrate composed of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen.

There was no need of lengthy explanation since the links spoke for themselves. Lipolysis and ketosis It is nitpicking to criticize the use of one word over the other.


Indeed. You are, by the way, duplicating much of this heavily quoted post above in the other thread...
