Carbohydrates in metabolism

It is a biochemical processes responsible for the metabolic formation, breakdown, and inter-conversion of energy in ATP form of a human beings. The constant supply of energy by carbohydrate is only Glucose which can be broken down via glycolysis, enter into the Krebs’s cycle and oxidative phosphorylation to generate ATP. Carbohydrates are available in three forms such as sugar, starch, cellulose. Starches and sugars form  essential sources of energy for humans whereas Fibers or cellulose contribute to bulk in diet. Body tissues depend on glucose for all activities in a day to day life. Foods such as rice, wheat, bread, potatoes are mostly having high content of sugar. The overall reaction after food intake is in the form of a chemical reaction is   C₆H₁₂O₆  + 6O26 CO2  +  6 H2O + energy
