The Pitfalls of Snacking While Cooking

[BellaEdward7]

1) As glycogen: this is just long chains of glucose moleculesPurefit Keto joined together. It is stored in the liver and muscles and can be quickly made available when more glucose is needed.

2) As fat: stored under the skin and around the organs. Fat is more of a long term energy store. When we are low on glucose, glycogen is used in preference to fat.

So, if our blood glucose goes down, glycogen is broken down to release more glucose. If that starts to run out fat is then burnt to provide energy. In this way we are able to maintain a fairly constant level of blood glucose.

If we can reduce the amount of glucose available from our diet, or reduce the amount available from glycogen stores, this means our body will be forced to burn more fat. This is what we want when trying to loose weight!

Now chlorogenic acid works in two main ways.

1) It reduces the uptake of glucose from our small intestine. We know this because experiments have been carried out on rats which show reduced glucose absorption in the small intestine when chlorogenic acid is present [1].

2) It has been shown to inhibit an important enzyme found in the liver which is needed to break down glycogen: glucose-6-phosphatase (G6P). Now this has been shown in the lab[2], but not yet in a living animal, so how do we know it actually does inhibit G6P when eaten? Well it has not been directly demonstrated, but scientists have shown that chlorogenic acid is absorbed into the blood, via the stomach without getting degraded in rats[3]. So it is reasonable to assume that it arrives at the liver intact, where is can get to work inhibiting G6P.
