Question
which dietary nutrients are most effective at raising muscle glycogen concentrations? select one o a proteins o b carbohydrates o c fats o d chromium and iron o e sodium and potassium
Muscle glycogen is a stored form of glucose (a carbohydrate) in muscles. Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which is then stored as glycogen in muscles. Proteins are for muscle repair/building, fats for energy storage (long - term), and the minerals (options D and E) have other roles like electrolyte balance or enzyme function, not glycogen storage. So carbohydrates are most effective at raising muscle glycogen concentrations.
