Nah, when you’re dealing with carbs as simple as sugars, they’re broken down and absorbed very efficiently. Some of it even gets absorbed in the mouth before you swallow. So the spikes from stuff that is that sugar packed it can bump up blood sugar levels high enough to throw your whole system out of whack.
Basically, it triggers a massive insulin dump into the blood stream, with all that entails.
And, since the body can’t use that much at once, it’s more likely to get converted to fat than smaller bumps.
Fats, compared to sugars, take longer to get broken down and absorbed. That process starts with saliva in the mouth, but doesn’t really get going until later. Iirc, you typically won’t be taking in any of the fats until it hits the small intestine.
I was thinking the opposite. The first one s a huge sugar hit, and every following one.
