If consuming a no carbohydrate diet, what would the brain use as its primary energy source? Where would these come from? Why does it use these and not fatty acids? - The brain would have to use ketone bodies as its primary energy source since it is unable to use carbohydrates and also unable to go through beta oxidation and utilize fatty acids. The ketone bodies would come from the liver. Your friend rarely drinks alcohol, but at a social event is drinking heavily. How would he/she be metab...

NSC Exam Review Questions and Answers Normal Fasting Blood Glucose Levels - Answer-normal 70-99 mg/dl, prediabetes 100-125 mg/dl, diabetes greater than 126 Probiotic Vs. Prebiotic - Answer-probiotic (yogurt) are healthy bacteria that aid the GI tract to move everything along, where prebiotics (honey) are mainly fibers that feed the probiotic bacteria Lactose Intolerance - Answer-lack of lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose into a monosaccharide in order to be absorbed. Since it ...

PKU - ️️In individuals with PKU, phenylalanine can't be converted to tyrosine because of the mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase. So tyrosine is conditionally essential DIASS V PCDAAS - ️️PDCAAS uses total digestibility, a single reference pattern, and is truncated AAS V PDCAAS - ️️PDCAAS also takes into account protein digestibility sucrose v high fructose corn syrup - ️️The fructose in sucrose is bonded to glucose, so it will result in the same free fructose availa...
