Energy Release
  1. Oxidation of fat
    1. fatty acids are more important in energy production than glycerol
      1. fat can feed into the citric acid via acetyl CoA
        1. NADH and FADH2 are produced
      2. Oxidation of amino acids
        1. more complicated as there are 20 different types
          1. can be converted to pyruvate and acetyl CoA
          2. Interconvertibility of fuels
            1. acetyl CoA cannot be converted to glucose
              1. pyruvate can be converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis
                1. amino acids which give rise to citric acid cycle intermediates can be used to make glucose
