Where does it all go?


Where do the calories you eat go?

Here:
25 percent to muscles
23 percent to the liver, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, and adrenal glands
10 percent to the kidneys
10 percent to the brain
10 percent to breaking down the food you just ate
5 to 10 percent to the heart
2 to 3 percent to fat cells

As for which 'fat cells' I cannot tell you. You're on your own. But it is interesting. And I'm sure those %s also depend on the person.
