Carbohydrates - An Energy Currency

Nov 02,2017

When it comes to Energy, the currency that your body understands is CARBOHYDRATES! WHY CARBOHYDRATES? During any sport or physical activity, our energy predominantly comes from carbohydrates and fats. Our Fats take a longer period of time to be broken down into usable energy form for our body, whereas Carbohydrates can be rapidly broken down into usable energy form which is quickly available to our body. CARBOHYDRATES are the most essential nutrient concerning any physical activity. They provide themselves as the main source of glucose which helps produce Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), which is the building block of energy and also the energy currency. Our body even produces Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) by utilizing the food that we eat and avail our body with the usable energy it requires to be able to perform physical and mental activities. Basically, Carbohydrates supply muscles with the energy fuel and the availability of carbohydrates in the body has the ability to alter performance. They are the main source of fuel for our skeletal muscles?. people-1840436_960_720

Athletes need carbohydrates in order to maintain blood glucose levels for muscle energy. The glycogen stores in the muscles must be at adequate levels to provide the athlete with the energy he needs for his activity. Carbohydrates remains to be the most preferred source of fuel for energy as they rapidly break down to be available to the body. But here?s the sad part?. This energy currency keeps getting depleted as you keep ticking the miles. Unfortunately, the body is able to store only a limited amount of carbohydrates. As these currency of carbohydrates keeps getting depleted so you need to replenish them quickly before you be broke of this currency or before you hit the dreaded ?wall?. Here?s why this happens! As the carbs levels fall down, so does our energy. And when energy goes down, it becomes difficult for our body to maintain pace. Once carbs levels are depleted, the muscles are forced to use fat as a source of fuel for energy. While you might think that it would be okay even if carbohydrate stores are depleted as the body can use fats as an alternative source of energy, it?s really not the case. Our body finds it difficult to convert fat into energy which might mean that you?re going to have a tough time maintaining your running pace and energy requirements which sounds pretty unpleasant. Doesn?t it? But don?t you worry! Here?s the oh-so-happy part of the story?. (After bad news, comes the good news) To save you from having an unpleasant run, we have got a quick solution for you!
