Why do you need carbohydrates in your diets?

Carbohydrates are one of the main types of nutrients. They are the most important source of energy for your body. Your digestive system converts these carbohydrates into glucose (blood sugar). Your body uses this sugar for energy for your cells, tissues and organs and stores any extra sugar in your liver and muscles for when you need them. Carbohydrates are called simple or complex depending on its chemical structure. Simple carbohydrates include sugar found naturally in products such as fruits, vegetables, milk and milk derivatives. They also include sugars added during food processing and refining. Complex carbohydrates include breads and cereals, vegetables rich in starch (starch) and legumes. Many complex carbohydrates are a good source of fiber. For a balanced diet, limit the amount of added sugar you consume and choose whole grains instead of refined grains.
