[edit] Facilitated transport of lactic acid

Hi guys. I was looking up facilitated transport and it redirected here. I'm not very knowledgeable of diffusion, so I was wondering if this statement I read in an article on lactic acid could be of potential supplement to this article.

Lactic acid- in contrast to glucose and other fuels- is smaller and better exchanged between tissues. It moves across cell membranes by a rapid process called facilitated transport. Other fuels need slower carrier systems such as insulin.
