Humans Have Metabolism Systems of Glucose and Ketone Bodies

From the biological point of view, humans have undergone various evolutions for long. Humans and monkeys are belonged to the primate species, which have neuroendocrine system (NES) with an important role in controlling several axes for regulating the growth, stress, metabolism and reproduction. There are important metabolic systems of glucose and also ketone bodies (KB) which can produce much energies. Recent topics for nutrition therapy include the comparison of calorie restriction (CR) and low carbohydrate diet (LCD). Continuing LCD meal to some strict degree can bring hyperketonemia, which may have beneficial effects on cardiovascular system and anti-cancer in humans.
