hey guys I had a question someone want

to know what is gluconeogenesis okay

gluco means glucose neo New Genesis

means Crete 18 so gluconeogenesis is a

process or pathway of making glucose

from non carbohydrate sources protein or

certain lipids like triglycerides and

what’s interesting is your body doesn’t

need carbohydrates because it can make

carbohydrates from the protein and

triglycerides that you consume and the

purpose of this system is to prevent

hypoglycemia low blood sugar and help

you maintain your blood Sugar’s between

meals and when you’re fasting now nearly

all the cells in the body can run and

ketones except for a few there are

certain cells in the eye that need

glucose there are certain small parts of

the brain that require glucose but the

majority of it can live on ketones and

red blood cells so the point I’m trying

to make is you don’t really need

carbohydrates if your body needs a

carbohydrate it can make it from protein

or certain fats hey some curious comment

below and tell me what you think about
