Glucose is the only fuel used by red blood cells because they lack mitochondria

[Westside PUFAs]

"Glucose is the only fuel used by red blood cells because they lack mitochondria. Without glucose, red blood cells could not survive. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. Without red blood cells, most of the tissues of the body would suffer from a lack of energy because they require oxygen to completely convert their fuels to carbon dioxide and water."

What better way to supply glucose than to eat polysaccharides, monosaccharides and disaccharides.

Solid textbook. I must have printed out at least a quarter of it by now.

Feel free to keep sharing good nuggets.

Like seriously. My health is ****88 up. Yesterday I had 400g of carbs and under 10g of fat. Today I had already 3 eggs and 30g of butter with meat and veggies. I'm little bit confused now. I have no idea what I should eat tomorrow LOL :hanginground

Take the day off. Food is not that important anyway and, if it stresses you out, just blow it off and drink some lemonade and enjoy some sunshine and flowers and laughing babies and crisp night air with your new puppy and sweet snuggles with your girl and gaze upon the stars and wonder about the universe displayed.

So purpura and anemia are caused by hypoglycemia?
