Carbohydrates As Fuel.
The immediate sources of fuel for our bodies are carbohydrates (sugars and
starches)these are very important sources of energy; sugars are the
simplest form of carbohydrate and although they are often thought to be
‘bad’, it’s only the over-processed sugars that have all the other
nutrients removed that you need to cut. The others, such as those found
in fruits, are a key element of a healthy body, as blood sugar levels
play an integral part in the normal functioning of the body - it is the
only source the brain uses.If sugar levels are low, lethargy may creep
in, leading to decreased concentration,tiredness and bad food
choices.Something to think about the next time you want to cut back on
carbs.
