Do you know how diet carb are used as fuel for the body?  Every time you consume a carbohydrate food, it is processed the amylase enzyme in your mouth to be converted into a simpler form of carbohydrate which is glucose.  Glucose is then absorbed into the blood stream through the digestive tract. Insulin is released by the pancreas which helps the glucose enters the cells of the body to be turned into energy. However, it is impossible to use all of the available glucose form food especially when it is available in abundance, Therefore insulin works to help the cells absorb what is needed and store the rest in the liver and muscles.  It is stored in the form referred to as the glycogen.
