Carbohydrates Assignment

Simple Carbohydrates

Fructose – Fructose protects the liver from hypoxic cell death. Fructose can protect against the stress of increased hydrogen peroxide and it’s metabolite fructose, 6-bis-phosphate is an even more effective antioxidant. Glucose causes smaller increases in metabolic rate in overweight people versus healthy people but fructose increases there metabolic rate to the same levels.

Galactose & Lactose – Galactose has been identified to be one of 8 essential sugars needed in the human diet for proper cell development and functioning of the human body. It also functions as a fundamental and structural substance for cells, cell walls, and intercellular matrix.

Maltose – Maltose is also used to extend the shelf life of many foods like jellies, candies, jams, and baked goods. Maltose can increase the production of saliva; thus making the sugar a good treatment option for dry-mouth. Maltose is able to control microbial growth. When maltose is added in these preserves, the volume is added but the sweetness tends to diminish.

Sucrose – Sucrose is actually a carbohydrate. The body needs carbohydrates for energy, therefore, sucrose, like all sugar types, is actually good for your health. The danger lies in consuming too much. The complex carbohydrates found in vegetables, grains, and fruits are good for you; the simple sugars found in sodas, candies, icings, and packaged treats can do harm, at least when eaten in excess.

Complex Carbohydrates

Starches – Starchy vegetables are valuable sources of fiber, an indigestible form of carbohydrate. Fiber plays numerous important roles in health, including helping your body gather and get rid of waste, keeping your blood sugar levels and appetite in check and promoting healthy cholesterol levels. Antioxidants are nutrients that help your body fend off free radicals, substances that can damage cells and genetic material.

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) – Contrary to common belief, high fructose corn syrup may not have as much of a negative impact on weight gain than white sugar. As with all other sugars, in moderation, high fructose corn syrup can be used in various foods and beverages to add texture, quality as well as boost their flavor, especially on healthy foods.

Cellulose – When you consume cellulose, it passes through your stomach and small intestine unscathed, and is eventually broken down by bacteria in the large intestine. What this means is when we eat foods rich in cellulose (lettuce and cabbage being good examples) it provides roughage which keeps the digestive system flowing smoothly.
