About "fat" just about every excess calorie goes to fat stores. Some just faster than others especially simple sugars, simple carbohydrates, and most fats. Key word is "excess." Least sugars absorbed and least to cause insulin production (what the body uses to break down sugars) is alcohol sugars. Main downside of many of those is laxative affect so best used sparingly.
Wheat and its gluten, untill mid 20th century, was a healthy staple. Gluten sensitivity was rare. Mid Century virtually all wheat produced for the masses was/is hybrids that are less damaged by wind (shorter stalks) and drought and more resistant to insects, blights, molds, etc., and increased production per plot of land. They hit the world almost overnight without any testing as to how any animals' bodies respond to ingesting them on regular basis. Studies are being done but nothing conclusive enough yet. Lots of small studies being done with alarming implications. There are a few small farms around the world that produce the non hybrids but not enough produced to feed a village let alone the world. Good book to read is "Wheat Belly."
Karen, several decades ago we had a couple of books titled something like the "Caveman Diet." Makes a lot of sense if one believes in evolution as humanoids evolved for hundreds of thousands of years eating much differently than we do in past few centuries, for most foods. I say "believes in evolution" because shockingly more and more people, are moving to creationism, rejecting elvolution with the belief that the earth is only a few thousand years old. In other words "man" walked with dinosaurs.
