Not exact matches

Food absorbed by our bodies is converted to glucose that powers the body — and the brain.

In healthy people, glucose is absorbed from the blood for use by various tissues.

Patients with Type I diabetes lack insulin, which is normally produced by the pancreas and regulates metabolism by stimulating muscle and fat tissue to absorb glucose from the bloodstream.

Enterocytes only absorb monsaccharides either by active transport as occurs with glucose or by passive diffusion as with fructose.

While glucose is absorbed directly into the blood from the digestive tract, to be used as energy by our cells, fructose must first be processed by the liver, where is shunted into the metabolic pathway that leads to fat synthesis.

Fructose is absorbed slowly and must be converted to glucose by your liver before being able to be used by the body, so that alone will not improve performance either.

Backed by scientific research, chlorogenic acid changes the way glucose is absorbed in the body, which may result in weight loss, as well as many other health benefits.

Only about 10 % of the ingested isomalt is digested to glucose, sorbitol and mannitol in the small intestine, the rest passes to the large intestine where it is broken down (fermented) by the beneficial bacteria into gases and short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are partly absorbed in the colon and partly used as a food for the bacteria [1,2 - p. 184].

Psyllium exerts its beneficial effects by binding to glucose in the small intestine and preventing or slowing it from being absorbed.

But it's transported across the intestinal wall by a different mechanism, so you can have both glucose and fructose being absorbed at the same time.

Although glucose is highly fermentable by bacteria, it is typically absorbed in the upper portion of the small intestines; thus, if SIBO exists in the lower portion of the small intestines, it may be missed.

Deglet noor dates are about 63 % sugar by weight (according to USDA nutrient database)[24 % sucrose, 20 % glucose, 20 % fructose], and after digestion of the sucrose in the GIT, 32 % glucose and fructose both, which is then absorbed into the bloodstream.

Insulin, a hormone made by the beta cells in the pancreas, is vital in order to turn food particles into glucose that can be absorbed by the bloodstream.

While glucose (the other primary simple sugar) is absorbed by the digestive system and can be used by the body for energy, most fructose is not absorbed and is instead sent straight to the liver for processing.

Intermittent fasting forces the body, which normally uses glucose for fuel, to convert certain types of fat into fatty acids that can be absorbed by the blood.

Fat on the other hand is easily absorbed and stored by the body, and the process for its conversion to glucose is also inefficient, and leaves waste byproduct in the body.

Glucose is a vital substance that provides much of the energy needed by cells, but it must first be absorbed by the cells.
