So, if you eat too many carbs your body will produce fat to store it. What kind of fat is it? Since it is solid would it be considered saturated?
Are there other forms of fat produce within the body in this manner?

I imagine that its saturated. I don't think the human body can make unsaturated fat, hense the name essential fatty acids. but I don't know.

Years ago the author of "Acne can be cured" Commented on this, claiming that if someone started the anti-acne diet, some one could still have problems with acne via stored fat in their body. So, if they lost weight, they could have a flair up, even if they were keeping strictly to the diet.

I think thats an overly simplistic view of things, as the body does a lot of complex things chemically.

Now that is food for thought.

Wait... why do you want to know?

Are you planning to fry up some human bacon niblets to sprinkle over your salad?

David,

It's visceral fat in your body, and saturated fat in the kitchen or Crisco tub. Unless you are a predated species, what's around your belly doesn't qualify as saturated fat. I would just like to add: this thread has made me queasy.
