Why Are Fats The Preferred Energy Storage Molecule?

Fats are good at storing energy but sugars are an instant energy resource. Fats come into play when glycogen reserves aren''t adequate to supply the whole body with energy. Their breakdown, which is less rapid than that of glucose, will then supply cells with the energy they need. However, fats aren''t only there as energy reserves.
