Sucrose, glucose and starch are related because they're all forms of carbohydrate. One of the essential macronutrients in foods along with protein and fat, carbohydrates supply energy to your body. Carbohydrates, which consist of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, are classified according to their chemical makeup. Glucose is a single sugar molecule that your body can absorb directly in the intestine. Sucrose and starches are carbohydrates formed by two or more sugars bonded together. The sugars in sucrose and starch must be broken down into glucose molecules in the gastrointestinal tract before your intestines can absorb them.
