As he reads about carbohydrates, Trevor is surprised to learn that the brain and nerve tissues prefer carbohydrates as fuel.

Carbohydrates are broken down into smaller versions called glucose. This makes carbohydrates the body's number one energy source.When you don’t get enough carbohydrates, the level of sugar in your blood may drop to below the normal range (70-99 mg/dL), causing hypoglycemia.
