Different types of complex carbs take different amounts of time to digest. High glycemic index carbs take longer than low glycemic index carbs. Carbs such as basmati rice, nuts, and steel cut oats can take as long as three to four hours to digest.

Sugars will digest in the body in an average of 30 minutes. Starches may digest quickly by passing through as energy. For either of these, it will depend on the amount of food eaten and the metabolism of the body.
