    DOYLESTOWN (Montgomery
Co.) How for would you get if
you car’s gas tank registered on
empty? The car may sputter, then
stop completely. By comparison,
if you didn’t replace your body’s
fuel a three or more times a day,
your body would sputter, too.
Our bodies rely on three nutri
ents for fuel or energy carbohy
drates, fats and proteins. Carbohy
drate is the number one body fuel
it is efficient and gets to the
cells in a speedy manner. Every
cell in our body needs carbohy
drate to perform its duties well,
especially our brain cells.
Carbohydrates are classified as
simple or complex. In their simple
form, they are commonly called
“sugars.” Glucose is the sugar
which circulates in the blood and
brings energy into muscle, nerve
and brain cells. Glucose combines
with another simple sugar - fruc
tose - and builds a double sugar,
sucrose, more commonly known
as table sugar. In fruits and veget
ables the contents of glucose and
fructose depend on the species,
ripeness, and state of preservation.
Glucose combines with another
sugar, galactose, and makes a dou
ble sugar, lactose, a commonly
known milk sugar to which many
have in intolerance. When glucose
combines with another glucose,
maltose is created.
When glucose combines with
many other simple sugars in
foods, a chain is created. This
chain is known as a complex car
bohydrate or starch. Through the
process of digestion, the starch is
broken down into its simplest
components, such as glucose.
Only in its most simplest form can
the carbohydrate be taken in by
the cell and used for fuel.

Fuel For You
Our body stores carbohydrate in
the liver as a starch. We must
however replenish the liver stores
approximately-every four hours in
order to keep the blood glucose
level stable. When our blood glu
cose level starts to drop, the chain
of stored starch is broken and
some sugar is released into the
bloodstream to keep it temporarily
elevated. We then need to eat a
meal to raise the blood sugar level
to normal and keep it there until
the next meal.
Fats, also called lipids, is a
group which serves as a concen
trated source of energy or fuel.
Fats do not dissolve in water
which makes it an excellent nutri
ent for storage of fuel in the body
(which is mostly water). Also the
fat or adipose cell is able to store
fuel in 85% of it and leave the
remainder for necessary functions.
By contrast, the stored starch can
occupy only about 15% of the cell
with the remainder free for other
functions. So the storage of fats in
the cell provides an efficient way
to carry a lot of backup fuel. It is
important to remember that car
bohydrates and proteins not
immediately needed by the body
are changed into fat, delivered and
stored in the adipose cell to be
used in the future. Although the
body has limited ability to store
starch, the body can store unlim
ited amounts of fat simply by
creating more adipose cells. So in
a sense, fat cells are the pantry of
the body.
The word protein was derived
more than a century ago from a
Greek word meaning “of first
importance.” It was the first sub
stance recognized as a vital part of
living tissue. Although protein can
give the body energy, its main

purpose is to give structure to
cells, antibodies, many hormones
and enzymes. Most of the protein
found in the body is in the muscle
tissue; the remainder is distributed
in soft tissues, bones, teeth, blood
and other body fluids.
Proteins are very complex
chains of amino acids, such as
tryptophan, aspartic and glutamic
acids. The amino acids link
together and form a structures like
hair and nail tissue. Protein is used
to repair body tissue damaged
from the continual “wear and tear”
or from injury or surgery. This is a
function only protein can do
because it alone has the building
blocks of body tissue amino
acids. Protein is also used to build
new tissue during growth, pre
gnancy and lactation. Finally, pro
tein may be used for fuel if all
other sources are depleted. How
ever, it is not a good source of
energy because amino acids
require much processing. The
body prefers using its carbohy
drate and fat reserves for fuel.
When the body does resort to
using protein for energy, such as
during famine, muscles and
organs “waste” away.
Current dietary recommenda
tions follow the body’s needs for
fuels. The base of our energy
needs comes from carbohydrates
(55% of total calories). No more
than 30% of our energy should
come from the concentrated fuel,
fats. The remaining 15% of our
calories coming from protein is
not used for fuel but as source of
amino acids. So when you “gas
up” your body, choose your mix
of fuels wisely.
