During short periods of energy abstinence, the human body will burn primarily free fatty acids from body fat stores, along with small amounts of muscle tissue to provide required glucose for the brain. After prolonged periods of starvation the body has depleted its body fat and begins to burn primarily lean tissue and muscle as a fuel source.

Stored glucose or sugar in our body  will be release and will be use as source of energy. Remember, glucose stored in our body can suport the survivability of certain human and can only last for to hours. The body will also used the stored fats in our body. But even without food, people can survive as long as there is water because% of our body contains water.

When absolutely refrain from eating, the human body does not get (proteins and fats, and carbohydrates), so the body begins to digest the stockpile of sugar (glucose) and fatty acids and ketone bodies. But some tissue work only glucose, especially red blood cells and nerve cells, in this case the body's internal activities are stationed in maintaining the level of sugar (glucose)

in the blood .
