Carbs: types, functions

by SHaimaa
1

Slide 1: What are carbohydrates?

Carbohydrates are essential biomolecules made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They provide quick energy, store glucose, and support dietary fiber for gut health.

2

Slide 2: Primary function

The main role of carbohydrates is to supply energy. Glucose fuels cells, while excess is stored as glycogen in liver and muscles for later use.

3

Slide 3: Monosaccharides

Monosaccharides are the simplest sugars: glucose, fructose, and galactose. They cannot be hydrolyzed into simpler sugars and are absorbed quickly.

4

Slide 4: Disaccharides

Disaccharides consist of two monosaccharides: sucrose, lactose, and maltose. They must be hydrolyzed before absorption for energy usage.

5

Slide 5: Polysaccharides

Polysaccharides are many monosaccharides long: starch, glycogen, and cellulose. They serve storage and structural roles, with varying digestibility.

6

Slide 6: Everyday sources

Common sources: fruits, milk, honey for monosaccharides; grains and legumes for starch; vegetables provide fiber from cellulose and other polysaccharides.

7

Slide 7: Monosaccharide examples

Examples include glucose (blood sugar), fructose (fruit sugar), and galactose (in dairy). They feed metabolic pathways.

8

Slide 8: Disaccharide examples

Examples are sucrose (table sugar), lactose (milk sugar), and maltose (malted grains). Enzymes sucrase, lactase, and maltase act on them.

9

Slide 9: Polysaccharide details

Starch is digested by amylase to glucose. Cellulose forms dietary fiber; humans lack enzymes to digest cellulose, aiding gut bulk.

10

Slide 10: Quick recap & tips

Balance intake: favor complex carbohydrates and fiber; limit added sugars. Prioritize whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and adequate hydration for health.
