What else can I help you with?
Which macronutrient, carbohydrate or protein, is digested more quickly than fat?
Carbohydrates are digested more quickly than fat.
Why does fat generate more heat when digested when it is compared to protein and carbohydrate?
Fat contains more caloric energy per unit.
Is ketchup a protein?
More of a carbohydrate.
Why rice is more easily digested than meat?
Carbohydrates are more easily digested than protein.
How bad is rice as a carbohydrate?
White rice as a stand-alone carbohydrate is not good. It's glycemic index (the rate at which the carbohydrate is converted to sugar and absorbed into the blood system is high). The resultant high blood sugar will cause the body to react by producing insulin. Basically, insulin grabs that sugar and stores it in the body (i.e. weight gain). That being said, if rice is combined with a slower absorbing food, like protein (e.g. fish) or even fat (e.g. a coconut curry sauce) it is digested and absorbed much more slowly and less likely to cause a spike in blood sugar and an insulin surge. Brown rice is better than white - it digests more slowly. A good carb is one referred to as complex. Complex basically means digested and absorbed more slowly than a simple carbohydrate. White sugar is a simple carb. Whole wheat is a complex carb.
When you run out of carbohydrate energy, where does your body get more energy from?
When your body runs out of carbohydrate energy, it gets more energy from breaking down stored fat or protein.
On howrse if a horse is exercised does it need more glucose more protein more carbohydrates or more fats?
Horses that are frequently exercised need what? Increased protein Increased carbohydrate
What food do dogs eat Carbohydrate or protein?
As dogs will primarily eat and digest meat, animal protein is far more important than carbohydrates. A dog does not need a great deal of carbohydrate, and cannot digest certain carbohydrates as efficiently as protein.
What is a protein molecule with a smaller carbohydrate covalently bonded to it?
A glycoprotein is a protein molecule with one or more carbohydrate chains covalently bonded to it. Glycoproteins have roles in cell recognition, signaling, and adhesion.
Are some food combinations more easily digested than others?
There is a theory that not combining carbohydrates and protein is healthy. Carbohydrates and vegetables or meat and vegetables are both good combinations and can be more easily digested.
Why eat complex carbs over simple carbs?
They're digested more slowly, so you won't get hungry as fast.
Protein-carbohydrate compounds are called?
Protein-carbohydrate compounds are called glycoproteins. These molecules consist of a protein with one or more covalently attached carbohydrates. Glycoproteins play important roles in cell signaling, cell adhesion, and immune response.
