Best Answer

Carbohydrates are primary used by the body in the form of glucose.Fructose and galactose is also absorbed by the body. But these carbohydrates are not directly utilized as energy by the body, instead they are transported to the liver to be converted into fat or to glucose via the liver's glycogen storage.


An answer to your question is therefore hard to give. The body uses carbohydrates in the form of glucose, with the exception of energy storage where the body can use fructose and galactose as well.
