What happens to the body when you don’t eat for 14 hours? Lets see. I’m not a doctor so I don’t know in detail what happens but I know the big picture of what happens when you don’t have calorie intake for several hours.
Sugar level: Try this one first: what happens when you sleep at night, which is about 8 hours of no food intake? My sugar level goes down. Because during the night, I don’t eat anything, there is no glucose in my blood. Because no glucose needed to be converted to glycogene, the insuline (hormone that convert glucose to glycogene) is also low. Glycogene, by the way, is stored in liver and muscle, as energy. Insuline controls the glucose, whether to store it in muscle or in fat tissuess. So, imagine 14 hours of no glucose, and when breaking the fast, you eat sweet stuff. Your insuline level would ‘jump’ to adjust to the glucose intake. If you eat complex carbs, insuline will work up its way slowly, but when sugar is introduced, the insuline production has to jump start, but because sugar is non complex carb, it is quickly broken into glycogen and stored in the body. That’s why too much sugar causes yo-yo of the blood sugar level, which, in turn, will cause diabetes type II. Or, stored in the fat tissue if excessively taken
