A lie told once is QUESTIONED,
A lie repeated often enough becomes accepted,
โ and once it becomes "common sense", people stop investigating it.

This is called the Krebs Cycle or the Citric Acid Cycle.
This cycle happens in the MITOCHONDRIA.
This is the source of energy through the realisation of an energy-carrying molecule known as ATP.
The raw material fed into this machine comes from glucose or fatty acids and it is known as ACETYL-CoA.
Glucose can come from stored glucose in the liver or muscle known as glycogen [GLYCOGENOLYSIS].
Glucose can also come from the building blocks of Proteins known as Amino-Acid [GLUCONEOGENESIS]
Fatty acids come from triglycerides in the fat deposits in your body [LIPOLYSIS].
Therefore,
Energy doesn't come from the food you just ate that is sitting in your stomach.
Energy doesn't come from energy drinks.
Energy comes from ATP, which comes from the Krebs cycle, whose raw material is ACETYL-CoA, which is a molecule from the breakdown of glycogen, amino acids, or triglycerides.
But most of you are functional illiterates.
You sat in a class of biology, learnt these things, but you prefer listening to the marketing department of the food industry, and the corrupt nutritionists paid by the food industry.
