BRS6(KC1) - Glucose / Energy Substrate Availability

Availability of stable meal-derived energy substrates required to support neuroendocrine stress allocation without excessive glycaemic volatility.

Biological Role

Provides substrate availability for stable metabolic and neuroendocrine regulation
