wich meal bro ?
Yes - it is a general rule. Depending on the state your body is in, it's more likely to store the fat and use the carbs.
Goliath, what about if you had a shake, and put a scoop of carbs in it, and also a scoop of peanut butter?
It would be much better to use one or the other. When you eat, insulin is secreted by the pancreas. Insulin is an energy storing hormone - if you have all of those fat calories, and carb calories, your body is most likely to store the fat and use what it needs of the carbs then store the rest. Your body will almost always use sugar (glucose) for fuel first and fat last.Quote:

Ok what about say fibourus carbs, are they ok to mix with fats, e.g broccoli, spinach etc?
Fiber is a non-digestive carb. You could have broccoli, but I don't think it would taste very good in a protein shake...Quote:

IMHO, it's more about total caloric intake.
Most people respond, due to the effect of insulin, best with clean foods, 5-6 meals a day. Each meal 300-500 calorie range.
In general you shouldn't be eating alot of fat anyway, so which meal it comes in and how it comes, in general shouldn't make that much of a difference.
Hoped That Helped
Good Luck
