Glycogenesis is the biochemical process through which glucose molecules are converted into glycogen for storage in the liver and muscle tissues. This process is essential for maintaining blood sugar levels and providing energy reserves, especially during times of fasting or increased energy demand. Glycogenesis is tightly regulated by hormones and is a key aspect of carbohydrate metabolism, linking the intake of nutrients to energy homeostasis.
