"CHO loading can also produce supercompensation of liver glycogen; however, unlike muscle glycogen, liver glycogen can be converted to free glucose by the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) and released to the blood. Under resting fed conditions, supercompensated liver glycogen will return to normal levels within 2 days."
