What regulates the long term status of the bodies energy stores?
Leptin
Control of appetite

Starvation response
what happens to ensure long term survival?
reorganization of metabolism occurs
Starvation response
5 changes in metabolism
conserve glucose to protect glucose-dependent tissues, for example nervous tissue
muscles shift to lipid metabolism
after lipid and glucose stores are depleted proteins breakdown accelerates
AA are converted to fatty acids and carbohydrates
structural degradation occurs because there is no protein stores in the body (degradation of skeletal muscles)
