There are two types of carbohydrates; complex, and simple. Carbohydrates in general are the energy your body recieves from eating food. Simple carbohydrates such as sugary candys give you lots of energy, so you get a 'sugar rush' then crashs later when your body runs of of this energy. Complex carbohydrates such as those in whole wheat bread take longer to digest, but still provide sustaining energy. If you are trying to watch your weight, you want to cut out simple carbohydrates such as candies and opt for fruits.
