After carbohydrates are digested, they are broken down into simple sugars, primarily glucose. This glucose is then absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the small intestine. Once in the bloodstream, it can be transported to cells throughout the body, where it is used for energy, stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles, or converted into fat for long-term energy storage.
