Useful review of glucose metabolism

This is wonderful little app if you’re a cellular biology student or teacher. Perhaps the developers could expand it soon to discuss metabolism of fatty acids and proteins, as well as galactose and fructose — all complex pathways.

But it could use a good proofreading. I quickly spotted a few amateurish spelling errors.
