The answer is 50 % to 60% of the total daily calories. Carbohydrate contains the most glucose and gives the quickest form of energy. Your body modifications 100 percent of carbohydrate into glucose.  There are two types of carbohydrate: healthy and not-so-healthy. Carbohydrate has 4 calories per gram.

Explanation:

    Carbohydrate counting for type 1 diabetics helps the patient to adjust the exact amount of insulin they need to eat for their meal, and in adults usually 1 unit of fast or ultra-fast insulin, such as Humulin R, Novolin R or Insunorm R, covers 15 grams of carbohydrates.

    In the case of type 2 diabetes, it allows to effectively control the amount of food eaten in meals, helping to maintain calories, controlling weight and avoiding other complications such as metabolic syndrome.

   However, this technique should only be initiated by endocrinologist indication and it is essential to follow the diet indicated by the nutritionist, applying the recommended rules.

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
