GOOD carbs, might also be known as "complex carbs". They give your body tons of vitamins and minerals and it takes your body a longer time to digest them (hence the word "complex"); so your blood sugar levels remain more stable for a longer period of time.
BAD carbs are those "simple carbs" that your body breaks down almost immediately, causing your blood sugar levels to spike and stay elevated for a short period of time ☹️
For example, ever ate some chips and then found yourself looking back into the cabinet 20 minutes later because you felt hungry again? That's because when you eat bad carbs—like the processed flour in chips—your blood sugar levels rise quickly and drop shortly after, causing you to feel hungry AGAIN!
Unfortunately, this is the case with most of the foods we LOVE—the majority of them being loaded with BAD carbs and lacking nutritents our bodies needs.
When too many bad carbs are consumed, our cells tell the extra glucose to be stored as fat, Which increases our chances of developing a health condition such as diabetes or obesity—
currently impacting 1 in 3 Americans today.
