Interesting result: > With up to around 50%-60% fat in the diet, the mice ate more food and put on more weight. However, at higher levels of fat they gained less weight.

We don’t know exactly why, only that on these super high-fat diets the mice consumed fewer calories and didn’t gain as much weight.
