plural form of carbohydrate
A major class of foods that includes sugars and starches
Carbohydrates are the main energy supplier to the body During digestion they are broken down into glucose, thereby providing necessary energy Overconsumption leads to storage of fat, which if needed, can again be converted into glucose As a matter of fact, some carbohydrates have even more adverse on the blood glucose level than refined sugar itself, e g maltose, as in beer
These simple sugars and complex starches are the primary source of fuel and energy for active, healthy animals

Biochemical name for sugar containing molecules including single sugar (monosaccharides) like glucose and galactose, but also polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates) like starch (poly-glucose), cellulose (plant fiber material, also poly-glucose with a different chemical bond structure linking glucose units than those found in starch/glycogen and enzymatically indigestible by humans), chitin (hard shells of insects), and more complex carbohydrate components part of lipids and proteins such as blood serum glycoproteins (antibodies and blood group determinants A, O, B, rhesus positive or negative) All microorganisms (bacteria, viruses) contain carbohydrate surfaces (glycolipids) being the major determinants of immunogenic reactions during infections
A source of energy for the body Complex carbohydrates (carbs that break up into two or more sugars during digestion) are found in nearly all foods of plant origin The best source of carbohydrates is whole grains Simple carbohydrates can be found in fruits and vegetables But you should avoid the simple carbohydrates that come from processed and refined sugars They are not very nutrient-dense A gram of carbohydrate is 4 calories

carbohydrate
Carbohydrates are substances, found in certain kinds of food, that provide you with energy. Foods such as sugar and bread that contain these substances can also be referred to as carbohydrates. carbohydrates such as bread, pasta or chips. Any member of a very abundant and widespread class of natural organic compounds that includes sugars, starch, and cellulose. They are commonly classified as monosaccharides (simple sugars; e.g., glucose, fructose), disaccharides (2-unit sugars; e.g., sucrose, lactose), oligosaccharides (3-10 or so sugars), and polysaccharides (large molecules with up to 10,000 monosaccharide units, including cellulose, starch, and glycogen). Green plants produce carbohydrates by photosynthesis. In most animals, carbohydrates are the quickly accessible reservoir of energy, and oxidation (see oxidation-reduction) of glucose in tissues supplies energy for metabolism. Many (but by no means all) carbohydrates have the general chemical formula Cn(H2O)n. The carbon (C) atoms are bonded to hydrogen atoms (H), hydroxyl groups (OH; see functional group), and carbonyl groups (CO), whose combinations, order, and geometric arrangement lead to a large number of isomers with the same chemical formula but different properties. The class is further enlarged because each isomer has various derivatives: uronic acids, sugars with an oxidized group; sugar alcohols, sugars with a reduced group; glycosides, compounds of sugars with other molecules containing a hydroxyl group; and amino sugars, sugars with an amino group (see amino acid)

carbohydrate
One of the three main classes of foods and a source of energy Carbohydrates are mainly sugars and starches that the body breaks down into glucose (a simple sugar that the body can use to feed its cells) The body also uses carbohydrates to make a substance called glycogen that is stored in the liver and muscles for future use If the body does not have enough insulin or cannot use the insulin it has, which are the basic problems in most forms of diabetes, then the body will not be able to use carbohydrates for energy the way it should Sometimes abbreviated CHO See also: Fats; protein

complex carbohydrates
Complex carbohydrates, also known as polysaccharides, are foods of plant origin consisting of three or more simple sugars bound together The starch in grains is an example Compared to simple carbohydrates (refined carbohydrates such as table sugar and white flour products), complex carbs require a prolonged enzymatic process for digestion and thus provide a slow, even flow of energy This avoids fluctuations in glucose (blood sugar) levels which can affect energy Complex carbohydrates are a source of dietary fibre
complex carbohydrates
Starchy foods that are good sources of energy and nutrients, such as bread, rice, pasta and grains
