My simple understanding is that after you are Keto-Adapted your body can burn both stored and dietary fats equally well. They are mixed in the "FFA turnover pool". https://blog.virtahealth.com/dietar...tored-fat-keto/

So this is why Dr. Westman, if your goal is weight loss, asks that you add dietary fat "only to satiety" Pouring extra fats in coffee to hit some macro will prevent or at least slow burning what is on your body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRHS8oUDXFc

Oxidative Priority also looks at other fuels also: https://www.marksdailyapple.com/oxi...ls-to-the-body/

The Intake and Expenditure graphs that are in the 2010 New Atkins book were what finally clearified this concept for me. Similar graph in this article: https://blog.virtahealth.com/well-f...ketogenic-diet/
