Monosaccharides (from Greek monos: single, sacchar: sugar), also called simple sugars, are the simplest forms of sugar and the most basic units (monomers) from which all carbohydrates are built. Chemically, monosaccharides are polyhydroxy aldehydes with the formula H- [CHOH] n-H with three or more carbon atoms.
Carbohydrate. Lactose is a disaccharide found in animal milk. It consists of a molecule of D-galactose and a molecule of D-glucose bonded by beta-1-4 glycosidic linkage. A carbohydrate (/ ˌkɑːrboʊˈhaɪdreɪt /) is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 ...
An example of a low-carbohydrate dish, cooked kale and poached eggs. Low-carbohydrate diets restrict carbohydrate consumption relative to the average diet.Foods high in carbohydrates (e.g., sugar, bread, pasta) are limited, and replaced with foods containing a higher percentage of fat and protein (e.g., meat, poultry, fish, shellfish, eggs, cheese, nuts, and seeds), as well as low carbohydrate ...

Sugar is the generic name for sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrates, many of which are used in food. Simple sugars, also called monosaccharides, include glucose, fructose, and galactose. Compound sugars, also called disaccharides or double sugars, are molecules made of two bonded monosaccharides; common examples are sucrose (glucose + fructose ...
Barley malt syrup, barley malt [1] – around 65% maltose and 30% complex carbohydrate. Barley sugar – similar to hard caramel. Beet sugar [1] – made from sugar beets, contains a high concentration of sucrose. Birch syrup – around 42-54% fructose, 45% glucose, plus a small amount of sucrose.
