medium chain fatty acids, eg. olive oil provides as much if not more energy than equal wt, sugar with no insulin stimulus. not immediate, 1-2 hours, but energy lasts for 6-8 hrs. vs. sugar at 30 to 45 mins.

Thanks for taking the time to answer, EToh!

I wasn't thinking at the level of Kreb's cycle.

Much appreciated.
