What’s new is their “fructose survival hypothesis.” This same thing has been described in other ways before, but a lot of times it takes an initial study to describe an effect and then a follow-up study to incorporate it into a relevant framework. I guess they are tying the nutrition science aspect to the evolutionary science of hibernation through the ATP mechanism to create an explanatory model. This might contribute to behavioral science, or even approaches to pharmaceutical therapy (there could be a biorhythm aspect involved which is mediated by neurotransmitters).
