Are an inexpensive and widely available source of energy for our bodies?

Carbohydrates. Carbs are converted to sugar in the body, and the sugar is the primary energy source. Carbohydrates are the primary components of wheat, corn, potatoes, and some beans. We grind the wheat into flour and bake the flour into bread, so bread, pasta, cake, and any related foods are loaded with carbohydrates. But too much of anything is bad, and excess carbohydrates can be a cause of obesity. Remember, carbs are metabolized into sugar in the body. So you need a balance of carbohydrates and protein (meat, eggs, milk, cheese) to really be healthy.
