eli5: Why are the effects of eating 100g chicken and 100g cake different on the body?

398 views

One example being variation in weight gain despite consuming 100g food in both the cases.

I’ve not studied the subject after HS, so the premise and analogy may not be entirely correct.

As a simple explanation: how much of each of those is retained by the body for more than 24 hours?

I think you’ll find that a lot more of the mass of the cake is converted into substances the body retains.
