gluconeogenesis

When fat stores are depleted rapid muscle degradation occurs and provides energy to the body through gluconeogenesis.

Glucose can be produced from hydrolyzing longer carbohydrates, or even from fat and proteins via gluconeogenesis.

If you are referring to gluconeogenesis, yes, fat and protein can be converted to glucose but the amounts are fairly negligible.

Your liver does gluconeogenesis because a very few organs in your body (primarily some regions of the brain) need glucose to function.

I've the heard the pathway is gluconeogenesis[1].

Why neglect one aspect of our bodies digestive energy systems for just gluconeogenesis.

From what I've read we need roughly 100g of carbs a day, and we can create all of it via gluconeogenesis.

It's a much more efficient metabolic pathway than going through gluconeogenesis.

The point of not ingesting excessive protein is avoiding unnecessary gluconeogenesis.

My understanding is that when carbohydrates are in short supply, then gluconeogenesis kicks in and liver starts producing glucose from lactate, glycerol and amino acids.

Some problems I see with this are: Gluconeogenesis converts proteins to glucose to fat resulting, in reduced effective amino acid intake.

From my research, this is a demand-driven process via gluconeogenesis.

Do you realise, at least, that the body can produce it's own glucose from the excess fat (Gluconeogenesis)?

Gluconeogenesis is a continual process - it doesn't happen like a switch, it ramps up and down depending on your need for glucose.

Gluconeogenesis (part of the starvation adaptation) occurs within minutes.
