Detailed explanation-1: -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: -While both sugars and starches provide the same amount of calories, not all types of carbohydrates will give you long-lasting energy. Complex carbohydrates, such as starches, are digested more slowly and thus give you longer-lasting energy than simple carbohydrates, like sugars.
Detailed explanation-3: -Carbohydrates, such as sugar and starch, for example, are readily broken down into glucose, the body’s principal energy source. Glucose can be used immediately as fuel, or can be sent to the liver and muscles and stored as glycogen.
