Monosaccharides:

A carbohydrate that cannot be decomposed to a simpler carbohydrate by hydrolysis, especially one of the hexoses. Also called simple sugar. source

Monosaccharides are the basic building blocks of carbohydrates. The two most common simple sugars are glucose, which is both made in the body and found in foods, and fructose. Glucose and fructose combine to make sucrose, or common table sugar. A third common monosaccharide is galactose, which the body makes from sugars in dairy products.

Fruits, especially apples, cherries, grapes, guavas, lichees, honeydew melon, watermelon, mangoes, papayas, pears, persimmons and pineapple, are the richest whole-food sources of the monosaccharide fructose. Unless you have a fructose intolerance, health professionals generally recommend getting most of your simple sugars from whole fruits, which contain fiber that slows down your body’s absorption of sugars, as well as healthful vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Dried fruits and fruit juices are more concentrated sources of fructose. source
