The remainder is mostly sucrose and lactose. This will reduce fat intake and increase the benefits of fibre.
Excess glucose is converted to fat by the liver and adipose cells.
As blood glucose levels fall, insulin release falls and glucagon increases. Gluconeogenesis becomes important during times when dietary provision of CHO is inadequate and during exercise. Glucagon, cortisol and the catecholamines act to promote fuel availability - including mobilisation of fat from adipose tissues. Figure 2.5, page 32 Linder. Glucose homeostasis is essential for CNS function and RBC's.
