ng down food and absorbing its constituents ? 3 forms of energy – Lipids (fats) – Amino acids (proteins) – Glucose (carbohydrates) Energy ? Delivered to the body as lipids, amino acids, and glucose ? Stored as fats, glycogen, and proteins ? Most stored as fats. Why? ? More economical – 1 gram of fat stores 2X as much energy as 1 gram of glycogen – Fat does not attract and hold much water Energy Metabolism ? Chemical changes that make energy available for use ? Cephalic phase – preparation ? Absorptive phase – energy absorbed ? Fasting phase – – withdrawing energy from reserves – ends with next cephalic phase Energy Metabolism ? Controlled by 2 pancreatic hormones ? Insulin – high during cephalic phase – Allows body cells to use glucose – Promotes formation of glycogen, fat, and protein – Promotes storage of energy ? Glucagon – high during cephalic and absorptive phases – Promotes the release of free fatty acids and their conversion to ketones – making stored energy available SetPoint Assumption ? Despite lack of evidence, most believe that hunger is a response to an energy need。Chapter 12 Hunger, Eating, and Health Why Do Many People Eat Too Much?
