Document Summary

Using fats, protein and carbs to create atp. Not ideal to generate atp using protein. Glucose was able to travel from mouth and throughout while maintaining stable. Neurons, wbcs, rbcs, muscle cells need glucose. This can be used to sustain activity. 3c, then loses 1c from co2, then now has 2c. Lactic acid (comes from pyruvate pyruvate disappears afterwards) We can see which macronutrient is being used. Reacts with 2 other acetyl coa (important) Mitochondria can take these 2c and make citric acid with oxaloacetate to start the kreb cycle. Needs to react with oxaloacetate (you need glucose, carb metabolism) 2nd end is for dietary needs (meta) You need to get electrons and protons into the mitochondria. Electrons + protons formed during glycolysis and the kreb cycle. During hiit, protons and electrons from glycolysis will go to pyruvate to form lactic acid. To make h2o from the electrons and protons.
