Ketosis: the fat you eat vs the fat you wear?
So, does anyone know (I mean really know, as in the biomechanics) how the body tells the difference between the fat you are eating, versus the fat stored in your body? Or can it tell at all? If the ketostix are purple, what's to say that those ketones aren't from the butter you had at lunch? In most cases, the body would far prefer to burn consumed fuel over its precious reserves.
Thanks in advance.
