Nutrients in cells question??
This question may again be too technical but does anyone now how long nutrients used for 'fuel' remain in cells (when they're not being stored - I believe they're only stored in muscle, fat and liver tissue)? For example, if a glucose molecule enters a cell from the blood stream, will it be converted into waste and leave the cell within seconds, or hours or days or longer?
