After 50 gm of glucose is fed orally, there is: (A) Decreased ketone body production, (B) Increased lactate production upon exercise, (C) Decreased gluconeogenesis, (D) All of these
Answer is D. The examiner is asking about the metabolic change in absorptive (fed) state.
In Absorptive (fed) state there is a decrease in gluconeogenesis.
Ketogenesis (ketone body production) is also reduced in the fed state.
Exercising muscles use glucose anaerobically and produce lactate.
