What is a low-carb diet?

This inevitably leads to another question, “What are carbohydrates? Carbohydrates are a food group and so are the proteins and fats. Carbohydrates are vital for the functioning of the body because they are a source of energy and fiber.

Foods that contain provide vitamins, minerals, enzymes and proteins in some cases to our body. As in all there are good, average and poor. In general we can say that carbohydrates from refined foods and / or processed are not good for the body.

Bad Carbohydrates

If you stop to think a little more easy food to cook at a time of trouble surely include potatoes (potatoes), pasta and rice. Almost all foods except meat and fat are pure carbohydrates. But usually foods high in carbohydrates come from grains such as wheat, maize, barley and others.

In addition to grains also all kinds of beans or lentils are rich in carbohydrates. Fruits, vegetables and milk are also have carbohydrates.

Actually carbohydrates are not bad, it’s just that simple carbohydrates (after you explain more about them) in our bodies turn into sugar and then stored as fat. By becoming sugar and pass into the bloodstream cause the body to produce insulin to counteract its action.

Over-production of insulin causes lower our energy level and feel hungry. Generally we feel the desire to eat more carbohydrates and eat them the cycle begins again and creates a vicious circle.

The more we eat feel more like eating.

The different fad diets have different ideas because carbs are bad and which must be eaten. This is a long history that will try to continue in another article but for now we continue with carbohydrates.
