Why do we get Instant Energy from Glucose?

Instant energy? No energy goes instant, energy is always moving. Energy from glucose is energy that comes very quickly such as energy from cakes and candies, but energy can't go instant. Energy of glucose gives us energy within 20 minutes of consumption.

Glucose is a simple sugar which can be readily absorbed by the body. Unlike other foods such as carbohydrates that take energy from our muscles to breakdown those foods, glucose can be absorbed into the bloodstream without energy from our muscles. We get energy from glucose when it is broken down in our body, energy comes from its chemical bonds.

There are many types of energy workers who help us to release energy from glucose through metabolism, so we don't need energy from our muscles. The energy workers are called enzymes and coenzymes, which help other energy workers to breakdown glucose. Glucose is just one of many types of simple sugars that provide energy for our body, there are other energy sources such as fats that contain energy but they take more time to be broken down then the energy from glucose.

Glucose energy is mainly used for energy needs that require energy immediately such as thinking, speaking, running and playing sports. When we eat more energy than our body can use at once (such as eating a whole birthday cake) the energy will be stored in form of fat which will take time to breakdown. If you are wondering why don't we feel energy from glucose immediately after consumption, it's because energy doesn't come instantly.

Energy comes from glucose by energy workers which take energy from our muscles to breakdown energy sources such as glucose and fats. The energy from glucose can come in form of ATP or ADP which are energy carriers, depending on the type of energy need.

For example, energy from ATP is energy that can be used for energy needs such as energy from sports, but energy from ADP can be energy that is stored in form of fat or energy that will support anabolic reactions.
