The Science of Dieting and Carbs

Are you eating good carbs or bad carbs? Do you feel tired and hungry after you have a meal with simple carbs; white rice and white bread. These foods have been processed, they are too easy to digest and all the nutrients have been stripped from them, all you get are bad carbs.

Bad Carbs
If you eat carbs that digest quickly, they can turn into sugar quickly and spike your blood glucose and increase insulin as a response. The body digests the nutrients and the excess calories become body fat.

Good Carbs
Good carbohydrates are found in nutrient-dense foods that provide vitamins and essential nutrients that help protect your heart and prevent diseases. These are considered complex carbohydrates and are found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, tea, coffee, dark chocolate, red wine, and oatmeal. Not only will good carbs not turn into sugar quickly, they will also keep you feeling full. No more overeating of simple carbohydrates because your stomach and brain tell you that you are hungry.
