There is no biological requirement for carbohydrates

Filed under: Food and Diet by Matt Emery on August 31, 2007 @ 03:06 PDT

Professor Richard D. Feinman says;
It is true that your brain needs glucose, but glucose can be supplied by the process of gluconeogenesis; that is, glucose can be made from other things, notably protein. This is a normal process: when you wake up in the morning, between thirty and seventy percent of your blood glucose comes from gluconeogenesis. There is no requirement for dietary glucose.
