Abstract
No significant changes in the total acetone bodies in the blood were observed following exercise in 3 subjects on normal diets. On low carbohydrate diets, with a general elevation of the acetone bodies, a further increase was found after work. The maximal rise in each case was observed 2 hrs. after exercise. These exps. suggest that fat is used as such to supply the energy for muscular contraction in man.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
