Carbohydrates play essential roles in the body, primarily as a source of energy. When we eat carbs, our body breaks them down into glucose, which fuels our cells, muscles, and brain. Carbohydrates also help in storing energy, as excess glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in the liver and muscles for later use.

Beyond energy, carbs aid in digestion by providing fiber, which helps keep the digestive system running smoothly. They also play a role in sparing protein for muscle repair, as protein won’t need to be used for energy when sufficient carbs are available.
