Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins all provide energy. Carbohydrates turn into sugar which creates energy. Fats supply the energy through three types of fatty acids. Proteins supply energy through amino acids.

Carbohydrates supply glucose as the main source of energy for the body.
The nutrient that supplies energy for almost all living things is glucose. Glucose is a form of sugar that is broken down through cellular respiration to release energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This energy is then used for various biological processes in the cell.
Although the body is able to use energy also from fat and protein, the most preffered nutrient for energy production in the body are carbohydrates.
