The document summarizes metabolism during fed and fasted states. During feeding, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from food are absorbed and stored or used for energy in the liver, adipose tissue, muscle, and brain. The liver converts nutrients to glycogen, triglycerides, or sends to other tissues. In fasting, glycogen stores are used for glucose followed by gluconeogenesis and lipolysis while ketone bodies and fatty acids provide energy and preserve proteins.
