“Be Prepared” A Nutritional
View (from the Lion King)
I never thought carbs
were essential
Polysaccharides were
simply a pain
But once broken down I
transport them
as glucose for my
neurons and brain
I know that your views of nutrition
Aren’t relaxed as you study tonight
But scared as you are, it’s apparent
You are ready to put up a fight
It's a swift metabolic reaction
That makes lactate reduce without air
For electrons they must be disposed of
When the transport chains broken downstairs
So prepare for a test of a lifetime
Be prepared for absorption of food
What happens in fasting
You shouldn’t be asking
I don’t need a
preacher?
Just listen to teacher
When more keytones frolic
You’re net catabolic
Gluconeogenic paths rule
In the liver with glucogon there
Be prepared!
In cows we have
help from the microbes
As they eat beta
glucose away
In the rumen of sheep around the globe
But not Horses though they still eat hay
Proteins as amino acids
Absorb through duodenum terrain
And the reason they deaminize is
So the liver ATP can gain!
So prepare for the oligopeptide
(Oooh!)
Be prepared for the insulin too
(Oooh... La! La!
La!)
For Beta cells secrete
(We'll have food!)
When they see that we eat
(Lots of food)
Glycolysis churn
(We repeat)
And fat cease to burn
(Endless meat)
Until we stop eating
(Aaaaaaah...)
Keep LPL reeling
(...aaaaaaah...)
To say in adipocytes stay
(...aaaaaaah!)
No, there’s no reason you should be scared
(Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo)
Be prepared!
No, there’s no
reason you should be scared-
Be prepared!
