[Ways of using saccharose under conditions of insufficient muscular activity]

Under conditions of a limited motor activity an excess of administered saccharose is used not to compensate for the energy expenditures, that are below the control level, as shown by the glycolysis and oxygen uptake data, but to participate in the synthesis processes entering the glucosoaminoglycanes, cholesterol and triglycerides. The increasing amount of lipids is favoured by an activation of the pentose cycle (in the liver, heart, brain), due to which the depot of NADP-H2 in the body increases and the limit of liposynthesis is thus lifted.
