carbohydratesMainly sugars and starches, together constituting one of the three principal types of nutrients used as energy sources (calories) by the body. Carbohydrates can also be defined chemically as neutral compounds of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Carbohydrates come in simple forms such as sugars and in complex forms such as starches and fiber. The body b [..]

carbohydratescompounds of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon formed into the sugars, starches, and cellulose formed by plant photosynthesis of water and carbon dioxide. They provide energy and facilitate fat production. Three primary types: monosaccharides (simple sugars like fructose and glucose), disaccharides (lactose, maltose, and sucrose), and polysaccharides (c [..]

carbohydratesOrganic compound containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in a characteristic ratio, e.g. starch, sucrose (table sugar), and glucose. They are a basic source of energy, circulating as glucose in the blood stream, and being stored as glycogen in virtually all body tissues, but mainly in the liver and muscles. Bread, potatoes, fruits, honey and re [..]

carbohydratesCarbohydrates are foods which give you energy. They are called carbohydrates because they are made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The two main forms of carbohydrates are sugars and starches, which are found in foods such as grains, rice, breads, cereals and starchy vegetables. The body breaks down carbohydrates to provide your body with heat and e [..]

carbohydratesCarbohydrates are an important source of energy for both humans and pets. Carbohydrates can perform many roles in the body, such as storing energy. Carbohydrates come in simple and complex forms, the complex being the healthier of the two. Complex carbohydrates take longer to break down into glucose, making them a better source of long term energy.
