That's exactly right! Notice that we only store a very limited amount of carbohydrates. Bear was right about the body only needing a very small amount of carbs to function on (and it makes this on its own from both fat and protein).

I think he was wrong about his blood sugar levels, though. He believed that protein did not raise glucose nor did it raise insulin levels. That is wrong. His blood sugar tended to stay around 100mg per deciliter. Mine is typically 60-69mg per deciliter. If I were eating carbs that would be considered low, but since I'm not it is perfectly fine. I've never seen it above 69 on this diet except in the very beginning.

I think Bear ate too much protein. But, that's just my opinion.
