ALWAYS THINKING??we all know whenever we climb on mountain our legs start paining due to lactic acid,but what happen to lactic acid after releasing in body?
doesn't matter we are medical student or not,we all have some basic general knowledge.
as we known about lactic acid released in body on high altitude,but do you know after releasing lactic acid what our body do?and how our body use this acid?
INTERESTING YEAHHH!!!!
don't worry guys thats why we are here.
mainly our body use lactic acid in two ways.
1)small portion of lactic acid converted back into pyruvic acid and then metabolized oxidatively by all the body tissues.
2)the remaining lactc acid is reconverted into glucose mainly in the liver,and the glucose in turn is used to replenish the glycogen stores of the muscle.
so guys i think its clear for you that lactic acid again converted into glucose in our body.
