Detailed explanation-1: -Your body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose. Glucose, or blood sugar, is the main source of energy for your body’s cells, tissues, and organs. Glucose can be used immediately or stored in the liver and muscles for later use.
Detailed explanation-2: -Complex carbohydrates contain longer chains of sugar molecules than simple carbohydrates. The body converts these sugar molecules into glucose, which it uses for energy. As complex carbohydrates have longer chains, they take longer to break down and provide more lasting energy in the body than simple carbohydrates.
Detailed explanation-3: -Carbohydrates represent the predominant source of energy for plants and animals. In food, monosaccharide and disaccharide carbohydrates (fructose and sucrose) are responsible for the attribute of sweetness.
