Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If people consume more carbohydrates than they need at the time, the body stores some of these carbohydrates within cells (as glycogen) and converts the rest to fat. Glycogen is a complex carbohydrate that the body can easily and rapidly convert to energy. Glycogen is stored in the liver and the muscles.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you saturate your body with an excessively high number of calories and the majority of these calories are from carbohydrates, then the excess carbs are converted into fat, or adipose tissue, for longer term storage.
