A method of increasing blood glucose levels while metabolizing body fat. The method includes the steps of subjecting the individual to conditions where they start to use body fat as an energy source and administering a biologically active gluconeogenic compound to the individual. The preferred compound is calcium propionate; however, other salts of propionic acid, propionic acid itself, and non-essential amino acids may be used. The gluconeogenic compound may be taken by athletes to increase their energy level, and by dieters to reduce or maintain their body weight.
