Body Fat Cycle

    I'm wondering if anyone here knows about this.

    If a person at say age 20 starts off with a weight of 70KG and over ten years puts on 10KG(in a linear fashion) to become 80KG by the age of thirty ....

    Is some of this fat 10 years old ?, if they were a pot head in uni and then went on a diet in their 30's ..could possibly there be incriminating stuff still in the fat as its burned off and thus released into the bloodstream?

    Similarily..if someone deleloped an allergy to say dairy in later life but didnt have it when younger..could dairy related molecules or "stuff" be released during weightloss causing allergic reaction.

    Or is there a fat cycle whereby the body is constanly burning off the oldest fat as newer supplies are eaten..though in a weight gaining situation there must still be older fat left behind ?

    Anyone know the answer to this ?

    N.b I wasn't a pothead in my 20's nor do I have a dairy allergy!!

    Fat is just fat. It doesn't really contain anything other than itself. As far as i am aware.

    Actually the body does tend to store alot of heavy metals, undigestable food additives, harmful bacterial byproducts etc. in bodyfat. I know that bodyfat is burned and replenished continuously and so your fat is unlikely to be 10years old. However I have no idea if that neccessarily means that the toxins are continuously released too...

    As long as you lose weight at a reasonable pace your liver should be well able to deal anyway, and the toxins themselves tend to be heavy metals and such rather than the remains of everything you have ever had in your body. I believe I read that all traces of cannabis are gone 6 weeks after your last usage.
