Fat to Glucose?
« on: June 02, 2014, 08:51:24 PM »
I know if you overdo your portions of protein, they eventually end up as glucose, is it the same if you overdo the fat (butter, cream, etc)?
If anyone knows, I would appreciate knowing.  Tony you are usually the wise one -

Hi, Morgan! :)

When we eat too much of anything, there will come a point it will cause weight gain.
Gluconeogenesis is the process of synthesizing glucose in the body from non-carbohydrate sources.
This is how our bodies glean energy from proteins and fats.

So if we do not eat too much (i.e. more than our bodies need), and eat more fat than protein,
we're likely to lose faster.

I hope that helps! :)
