There are two main reasons it stores fat so well: To have energy beyond the amount of stored glucose, known as glycogen, you can hold in your muscles and liver (they can only hold so much), and. To help quickly remove sugar from your bloodstream when you eat it.

Answer:

Our body saves it as fat to use it later on.
