At present time glucose is primarily considered as basic energy substrate. Therefore, it is recommended to give amount of glucose which is necessary for oxidation and energy production. As critical illness is connected with so-called insulin resistance, it is recommended to reduce the glucose dose and maintain normal blood glucose. Glucose, however, may not only be the principal energy substrate but also the substrate necessary for many metabolic reactions, which are essential for normal reactivity and survival.

Keywords: energy; glucose; glucose requirement; glucose turnover
