Macronutrients

Roles
Preserve structural and functional integrity of the organism
Provide Energy at rest and during PA
Carbohydrates: (CH2O) Main energy source of humans
Classification

Polysaccharides

Olisaccharides

Monosaccharide: "Basic units of carbohydrates"

Galactose: "Must be manufactured, binds with glucose to form lactose"

Fructose: "found in high concentration in fruits and honey and can enter the blood stream rapidly

Glucose/Dextrose: "found in the body as a result of CHO digestion"

Role

Transforms into triaglycerol for later use

Forms glycogen as a form of storage in the liver and muscles

Energy source for cellular metabolism
