drates can be found in a lot of different foods, including breads, pastas, beans, potatoes, corn, soft drinks, desserts and milk. Starches may also be found in a lot of similar foods, such as breads, beans, potatoes and corn. Starches may be referred to as carbohydrates but carbohydrates may not always refer to starches. A better understanding of what carbohydrates and starches are will help solve this mystery.
What Are Carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates are compounds that are based on sugar molecules made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Types of carbs are classified based on their structure or by how many sugar molecules are linked together. Carb structure may be as simple as a single sugar molecule or two sugar molecules linked together. They may also be hundreds of sugar molecules linked together. There are three types of carbohydrates known as sugars, starches and fibers.
The Complex Sugars
Starches are considered complex sugars or complex carbs. In other words, their molecular makeup consists of hundreds of single sugar molecules linked together. This linkage forms a chain-like molecule, which can have either a straight or branched shape. When your body digests starches, all the chained sugar molecules are broken apart into single sugar molecules. These single sugar molecules are what the body allows to cross the intestinal cell walls to be absorbed and converted to glucose.
Starches vs. Simple Sugars
Starches are made of several sugar molecules, which is what classifies them as carbs. In other words, starches are made of several simple sugars. Single or double-linked sugar molecules are referred to as simple sugars. Starches are eventually broken down and absorbed by the body as simple sugars. Even so, starches are a single type of carb found in foods that are separate from simple sugars found in foods.
Starch and Complex Carb Link
Although both starches and fiber are formed of hundreds of linkages of sugar molecules, there is a difference between these two types of carbohydrates. The difference between fibers and starches is that the linkages between fiber’s sugar molecules cannot be broken apart by the body as can be done to starches. Therefore, fibers do not get broken down, absorbed and used by the body the way that starches do
