    Here's a pretty good article about it

    Basic Nutrient Metabolism | BodyRecomposition - The Home of Lyle McDonald

    One final thing is that at 60% of total calories coming from PRO you really don't need to worry about gluconeogenesis as even if it does happen it will happen from dietary protein not muscle or organ protein stores.
    Hey Doc the Tag you gave just wet my appitite ? What is the name of the book ? ( Amazon or eBay for best price ?Does the book consider other health conditions as Type II Diabeties ? My AC1 is 5 now so not a real concern but still have to execise and keep diet in check . Thank you sooo much !

    Rather analitic but good info . ! ! ! !

    Myself being on TRT and actually wanting to give me a Christmas persent of six pac abs at 54 ? If I read this short read correctly I could target a pure Protein and fat diet with maybe 20 grams of Carbs a day and I would cut and lean out like no tomorrow ? Just would the fat give me enough energy to train daily ? I find even now that with restricted Carbs and energy drain ?

    If I rode it out and depleted carbs to a minium would the Fat I eat and what is left in my body eventually give me all the energy I need to train with intensity ?

    Please share the name of that book ? I am 54 and only been learning and attempting to eat and train healthy since Oct of 2012 and I am pleased with the results compared to other average 54 year olds but . . . .I don't want to compare to other 54 year olds I want to compare to all men and be one healthy as possible and yet lean as possible ? Please share your thoughts ~ !
