Yet another piece of scientific evidence that says that calories are
not the final word on fat storage or fat loss in humans.

Calories mean squat.

Huh? Over a six year period, a 5.4% weight gain effect could be easily
explained by different effects on muscle, exercise tolerance/predisposition,
sleep, or any number of things that would have meant the trans-fat group
burned fewer calories than the cis-fat group.
