2-Sparing the use of proteins for energy.
3-Breakdown of fatty acids and preventing ketosis.
4-Biological recognition processes.
5-Flavor and Sweeteners.
6-Dietary fiber.]]> 2021-08-19 03:17:20 UTC https://padlet.com/apur6226_2/uzwqnpbll1utitv7/wish/1685324598 Adult Daily Requirements rluu7712 https://padlet.com/apur6226_2/uzwqnpbll1utitv7/wish/1685324790 - 45 to 65 percent of the total calories.

All three provide energy (measured in calories), but the amount of energy in 1 gram (1/28 ounce) differs:

4 calories in a gram of carbohydrate or protein

These nutrients also differ in how quickly they supply energy. Carbohydrates are the quickest, and fats are the slowest.

Carbohydrates is digested in the intestine, where they are broken down into their basic units:

Carbohydrates into sugars

The body uses these basic units to build substances it needs for growth, maintenance, and activity (including other carbohydrates, proteins, and fats).
