When carbohydrate intake is insufficient, the body begins to produce ketone bodies from fatty acids as an alternative fuel source. This process, known as ketosis, occurs primarily in the liver and allows the body to utilize fat for energy. Additionally, the body can also convert amino acids from protein into glucose through gluconeogenesis to meet its energy needs.
