Which is a long-winded way of saying that carbs, ingested early enough, should and does hamper the DP, but is it enhanced by fats?...fat (1 in a ?) chance!
My bet would always be on the 1/2 a wildebeest I had for supper. (Gnuconeogenesis, here I come!) | Oh, MAN that is most excellent! I would love to see that diagrammed!
Wildebeest -- nom, nom, nom! But, what about those hyenas you had to fight off?
