		In biochemistry, carbohydrates are a relatively basic class of chemical compound.
		The simplest carbohydrates are monosaccharides, which are small straight-chain aldehydes and ketones with many hydroxyl groups added, usually one on each carbon except the functional group.
		Other carbohydrates are composed of monosaccharide units, and break down under hydrolysis.

	Carbohydrate Intolerance: Encyclopedia of Children's Health
		Carbohydrate intolerance is the inability of the small intestine to completely process the nutrient carbohydrate (a classification that includes sugars and starches) into a source of energy for the body.
		Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy and, along with fats and proteins, one of the three major nutrients in the human diet.
		Carbohydrates are classified according to their structure, based on the number of basic sugar, or saccharide, units they contain.

		Certain carbohydrates are an important storage and transport form of energy in most organisms, including plants and animals.
		Carbohydrates are classified by their number of sugar units: monosaccharides (such as glucose and fructose), disaccharides (such as sucrose and lactose), oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides (such as starch, glycogen, and cellulose).
		Carbohydrates require less water to digest than proteins or fats and are the most common source of energy.

		However, since calories are a measure of energy, there cannot be, as some diet books claim, different types of calories.
		A fat calorie has the same amount of energy as a protein or carbohydrate calorie.
		A person's caloric need is determined using a variety of mathematical equations.
