Elevated ASP can also activate insulin release from the pancreas.

Good thread, thanks. This answers a question I posted for Doug Freyburger
yesterday. It looks like fat intake does stimulate insulin release to some
extent, via ASP. Although ASP is also influenced by insulin. I wonder how
much these factors are influenced by diet macronutrient composition and/or
hypocaloric vs. hypercaloric intake.

Anyway, I liked the simple (simplistic but not necessarily untrue) answer:
fat makes fat... lol. Good forum, I wasn't aware of it and will have to
check in there again.
