The human body derives energy from proteins, carbohydrates, and fats to aid in muscle movement and digestion of food. Carbohydrates are the main source of energy while proteins are necessary for repair and maintenance of muscles and other tissues. Carbohydrates provide 57 percent of our energy, and protein provides only 13 percent.
