All cells break glycogen down as needed to retrieve nutrient energy as G-6-P. Glycogen hydrolysis, or glycogenolysis, produces G-1-P that is converted to G-6-P, as we saw at the top of Stage 1 of glycolysis. But, glycogen in most cells is quickly used up between meals. Therefore, most cells depend on a different, external source of glucose other than diet.
