The body stores it as fat. It doesn't matter if the energy came from carbohydrates, protein, etc. The body will always store excess food (potential energy) as fat. It then converts it from fat to glucose to fuel the boy's need when exercising or when there is not enough calories coming in from some other source.

∙ 15y agoThe body breaks down the food and takes its protein, sugars, and any other essential ingredient, including fat. The body doesn't actually "store food", but it does take the essential nutrients and stores those, and it does store fat, which can be used when the body runs out of energy created by the cells in the body.
