Carbohydrates are typically converted into energy in the body within 30 minutes to 2 hours after consumption, depending on the type of carbohydrate and individual metabolism.
Carbohydrates provide energy for the body for a few hours after consumption.
The body typically takes about 30 minutes to 2 hours to convert carbohydrates into energy that can be used by the body.
Carbohydrates are typically converted into fat in the body within a few hours after being consumed, depending on the individual's metabolic rate and activity level.
Carbs and fats can be used as long term storage and are sometimes converted from glucose.
It typically takes about 6 hours for water to be converted into urine in the human body.

Unused energy is either stored in the body as glycogen or converted into fat for long-term storage. This process ensures that the body has a reserve of energy to use in times of need.
Energy (i.e calories). This stored fat can be converted easily into energy that your body can use - useful if there is no food available for a long time.

The body converts glycogen to fat for long-term energy storage through a process called lipogenesis. When there is excess glycogen in the body, it is converted into fatty acids and stored in fat cells for later use as energy.
Carbs and fats can be used as long term storage and are sometimes converted from glucose.
Starch is broken down into glucose in the body. Excess glucose that is not immediately needed for energy is converted into glycogen for storage. When glycogen stores are full, the excess glucose is converted into fat for long-term storage. This process helps the body maintain energy balance.
Glucose is used by the body as a primary source of energy. Red blood cells and neurones rely entirely on glucose for energy. Excess amounts of glucose in the body is converted to glucogon or fat and stored for later use.
Lipids do not provide a quick source of energy compared to carbohydrates. Lipids are more efficiently stored in the body for long-term energy use, while carbohydrates are the body's primary source of quick energy due to their rapid breakdown into glucose.
Know that carbs ARE good for you. They are a major source of energy for the body. However, excess carbs not used as fuel can be broken down into long term storage, becoming fat. So if you exercise moderately 3 days a week and don't have enough energy in your body, fat will be broken down to supply that need as a fuel source.
