DNL

DNL or de novo lipogenesis is the name of a process occuring in ones body by which the carbohydrate food that we eat and which gets converted to glucose is transformed into fat(fat cells). This process happens when someone is in a caloric surplus diet where is calorie expenditure is less then his calorie intake.
