To draw an analogy between human bodies and old tractors:   of course, old
tractors with their low RPM and low compression engines tend to burn nearly
anything. The fallacy is thinking food for the human is like fuel for the
tractor.  The problem with that is the fact that food actually should
provide smaller amounts of fuel (look at how much excess "fuel" most folks
are storing these days!) and larger amounts of lubricant and spare parts.
Essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, essential vitamins, essential
minerals...  humans need these lubricants and spare parts continuously, and
even moreso once broken down and in need of repairs.  Highly processed
carbs (sugar, flour) are like putting 105-octane racing gas into an old
tractor with no oil.
