The metabolic processes with which we are affected during the Starvation-Feeding cycle are:
- glycogenesis,
- glycogenolysis,
- gluconeogenesis,
- glycolysis,
- fatty acid synthesis,
- lipogenesis,
- lipolysis,
- fatty acid oxidation,
- tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle activity, and
- Ketogenesis
Sources of Blood Glucose: Different Phases of Glucose Homeostasis
Gluconeogenesis
Is the well-fed state, in which glucose is provided by dietary carbohydrates is exhausted, hepatic glycogenolysis maintains blood glucose levels.
Hepatic gluconeogenesis from lactate, glycerol and
