In this lecture, we explore the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the human body, from the mouth to the small intestine. You will learn how complex carbohydrates are broken down into absorbable monosaccharides and how these sugars enter the bloodstream to provide energy.
🔬 Topics covered include:
• Types of dietary carbohydrates (mono-, di-, and polysaccharides)
• Role of salivary amylase and pancreatic amylase
• Brush border enzymes: maltase, sucrase, lactase, and isomaltase
• Absorption of glucose, galactose, and fructose
• Transporters involved: SGLT-1, GLUT-5, and GLUT-2
• Regulation of carbohydrate absorption
• Clinical correlations (e.g., lactose intolerance, malabsorption)
This video is ideal for:
📚 Medical, nursing, biochemistry, and health science students
🧠 Anyone preparing for exams or seeking a clear understanding of carbohydrate metabolism
