It Blocks The Replacement Of Active Energy From Stored Energy

To unify these theories in particular, the researchers say we can look to hibernating animals as an example. When we're hungry and low on active energy, we go into survival mode. Animals know to forage for food when energy levels begin to fall; it’s why bears eat fruit to prepare for winter. Fruits are high-fructose foods, and fructose significantly stifles active energy. Fat acts as stored energy, but eating high-fructose foods blocks the replacement of active energy from fat storage, keeping active energy low like a bear preparing for a long winter's nap.
