I was hinting at something bigger than just a nitpick. I'm hypothesizing that gut flora interfere with macronutrient ingestion in a statistically significant way.
Microorganisms exist which produce glucose from materials that, if ingested by a human, would be emitted as waste.
What if colonies of these microorganisms were present in the human gut and unevenly distributed in the population?
