Carbohydrates is the source of stored energy in our body.
Explanation:
- Carbohydrates are the main energy source of the human diet.
- Carbohydrates are the nutrients most frequently used as an energy source (containing 4kcal per gram), as they are fast-acting and turn into energy as soon as they are ingested. This energy powers the brain and body.
- Carbohydrate is one of the macronutrients that we need, primarily for energy.
- Your body breaks down carbohydrates into glucose. Glucose, or blood sugar, is the main source of energy for your body's cells, tissues, and organs.
- Your body can transform extra carbohydrates into stored energy in the form of glycogen. Several hundred grams can be stored in your liver and muscles.
