Question

describe the body's referred order of nutrients breackdown.

Answer 1

Body utilises the nutrients in the order of

Carbohydrates_ fats_ proteins

Body needs readily available glucose for energy

Glucose is derived from simple carbohydrates

Then comes complex carbohydrates where they take little more time to break down

When we take carbohydrates in higher quantity after body's requirement the rest of the energy will be stored as glycogen, which being used in the fasting conditions next to the glucose

Fats: fats are accumulated in the adipose tissue. These fats are utilized by beta oxidation , in this process they converted in to the ketone bodies which will produce acetyl coa which enters Krebs cycle and later oxidative phosphorylation to produce energy (ATP) .this process may utilize additional energy than carbohydrate metabolism is the reason breaking down next to carbs

Proteins: the last nutrients to break down

Proteins gets broken down to yield aminoacids later they enter into gluconeogenesis in the liver to produce glucose

The protein break down is a bad idea because the intermediate product will be ammonia which is toxic

And aminoacids are essential for body or muscle building, important for protein synthesis as we know proteins are essential in many different ways like enzymes, structural proteins and different functional proteins..
