Humans had to survive situations of food shortage during their evolutionary history. Thereby the metabolic switch ensures a constant energy supply. It is thus an elementary ability to live from the body's own reserves in the times of food shortage. In the eating state the body burns mainly glucose for energy production. During fasting the metabolism switches from glucose burning to ketosis thereby using mainly fat and ketone bodies. The reintroduction of food leads to the switchback of the metabolism. This is followed by a regeneration phase.This change to switching back and forth of the metabolism is called metabolic flexibility. Today's lifestyle limits our metabolic flexibility due to overeating, missing
