Glycogen is what animals use for short term energy production. So if you are looking at finding food with glycogen either to eat or stay away from it would be protein since this is where animals store their glycogen. When you eat glycogen it must be broken down into glucose and reconstructed in the body and stored as glycogen again.

∙ 14y agoPolysaccharide Glycogen is a the main energy storage molecule in animals. It is many glucose molecules joined together. This is done for transport reasons. In plants there is a similar polysaccharide called amylose which differs in size and macro structure. There are other polysaccharides beside these.
