Aerobic Respiration --> Up to 38 molecules of ATP from 1 molecule of glucose
Anaerobic Respiration --> 2 molecules of ATP from 1 molecule of glucose
So if you have a strong oxidative metabolism then you are getting a lot more usable energy from your food than if you are under stress and getting much of your energy from anaerobic respiration.
Question
If you follow a Ray Peat inspired diet and succeed in keeping stress low and generating most of your energy from a strong oxidative metabolism will you be able to thrive on fewer calories of food?
