Carbohydrates provide the body with energy and are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They are divided into two types: simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates like candy, syrups, fruit, and milk are made of one or two sugars and are quickly digested, while complex carbohydrates like bread, rice, vegetables, and beans contain three or more linked sugars and take longer to digest. Both types are important sources of calories and nutrients, with complex carbohydrates being healthier overall.
