Wondering, “what is a carbohydrate, really?” Let me explain what you need to know.    Timestamps 0:20 What is a carbohydrate? 0:49 Monosaccharides 1:11 Disaccharides 2:00 Oligosaccharides  2:08 Polysaccharides  In this video, we’re going to talk about carbohydrates and sugars. I want to clear up some of the confusion around carbohydrates and sugars.  What are carbohydrates? Carbohydrates are made up of sugars, starches, and fiber. The biochemical name for a carbohydrate is a saccharide. Carbohydrates are a compound of saccharides, and carbohydrates are classified by the number of saccharides. The Greek word for saccharides is “sugar.” Monosaccharides—Mono means “single” or “one.” So a monosaccharide would be one saccharide. Monosaccharides are glucose, fructose, or galactose. This would be considered a simple sugar.  Disaccharides—Means two monosaccharides. An example would be table sugar or sucrose. Sucrose is composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides make up complex carbohydrates.  Oligosaccharides—These are 3-9 monosaccharides. Polysaccharides—Poly means “many.” This would be about ten or more monosaccharides. A few examples of polysaccharides would be starches like potatoes, rice, wheat, and corn. Fiber is also an example of a polysaccharide. Fiber helps decrease the absorption of sugar. Fiber also decreases the sugar response or sugar spike.
