Example of carbohydrates...

Many health experts advised that we should take complex carbs rather than simple carbs...
Why???? bcoz our body not created for simple carbs... so..i can say..it is poison for us..!!!
2 simple suggestion i've got from website..:

1) Read the labels
     If the label lists sugar, sucrose, fructose, corn syrup, white or “wheat” flour, they contain simple  carbohydrates. If these ingredients are at the top of the list, they may contain mostly simple carbohydrates, and little else. They should be avoided. (OMG!!! I luv to eat cekodok..means that i've to reduce my appetite from now) :(


2) Look for foods that have not been highly processed and refined
      Choose a piece of fruit instead of fruit juice, which is very high in naturally occurring simple sugars. Choose whole grain breads instead of white bread. Choose whole grain oatmeal instead of packaged cold cereals.

The closer you get to nature, the closer you get to health.

Simple carbohydrates, like sugar and corn syrup, are created in a factory

complex carbohydrates in vegetables and whole grains are designed by nature, and help you maintain your health.
