Protein is the last energy source of the body. The way with which the body uses energy is to burn carbohydrates first as an immediate supply; then fats are burned to accommodate the demand for more energy in prolonged activities; while protein is the last resort of energy of the body. Proteins can only be used up by the body when there are no more calories to be burned and the energy stores have also been depleted. Food deprivation and starvation could cause the body to use up protein as its final survival method. <span> </span>

Answer:

Put the person on his/her side to let out some throw up

It should be understood that  the meaning of CPR is cardiopulmonary resuscitation. And it is an emergency life-saving procedure that is done when someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped.

The stoppage of the breathing may have happened after an electric shock, heart attack, or drowning.

In this case, the person can be laid on his/her side to let out some thrown up, which will through the air passage and subsequently allow breathing.

It should be noted that, only CPR has been shown to be effective.
