[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 1965190"] I believe that the body will be [I]less inclined[/I] to turn to gluconeogenesis if it is able to efficiently burn ketones instead. GNG is apparently largely demand driven, but one way or the other excess protein has to be excreted or reconstructed into glucose. It cannot be stored directly as fat. In the event that some portion of the amino acids are not used for cell repair and growth, [I]and[/I] not excreted, they must first be converted into glucose and either used for fuel or [I]then[/I] converted to fat. It’s all sliding scales, not absolutes, but in my experience you can tip the scales in your favour armed with knowledge, and practical experience of those principles on your own body. Anyway this is all drifting terribly off topic, and the last time I rambled on about protein I got a ticking off... [/QUOTE]
