    Glossary Lipogenesis

    biological process converting excess carbs into stored fat

    Lipogenesis is the biological process by which the body converts excess carbohydrates into fatty acids, which are then stored as fat. This process primarily occurs in the liver and adipose (fat) tissue and is crucial for energy storage and maintaining energy balance in the body.
