Use of food and fat reserves in the body for the production of metabolic water and energy

When our body processes the food we have eaten and also uses the stored fat reserves, not only energy is produced, but also metabolic water. Metabolic water is a special type of water, also known as deuterium-depleted water (DDW), i.e. water with a low deuterium content, which has a number of benefits for the body. These include supporting mitochondrial function and potentially improving overall health and longevity.
Fats are particularly effective in this process. The complete burning of 100 grams of fat results in approximately 110 grams of metabolic water, while the same amount of carbohydrates produces only 55 grams of water. In addition, fats are an important source of energy; their metabolism releases about 147 molecules of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy currency in the body. On the other hand, the metabolism of 100 grams of carbohydrates produces approximately 36 molecules of ATP.
This energy efficiency and ability to produce water make fat stores and fatty foods particularly valuable for protection against desiccation, supported by the fact that many animals living in desert regions have large fat stores. These reserves help them survive in extreme conditions where water is scarce and temperatures are high.
The ability to transform fat into water and energy is crucial for adaptation to harsh environments and shows the importance of understanding metabolic processes for the scientific investigation of life in extreme conditions. Utilizing DDW and understanding its benefits to the body may open new possibilities for health applications and strategies to improve longevity and quality of life.
