Question

53 without adequate carbohydrates in the diet, the body uses fat and protein for energy.
a true
b false

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are the body's primary energy source. When there aren't enough carbohydrates (like in a low - carb diet), the body turns to fat (through a process called ketosis) and, in extreme cases or over long periods, protein (though protein is mainly for building and repairing tissues and is a less preferred energy source compared to carbs and fats) for energy.

A. True
