Bad Carbs Bad carbs are the ones that are processed and refined to remove their goodness. The fibre and nutrients are lost during the process. these include refined flour(maida) and its products. Refined sugar also falls in this category. Both have high glycemic index, are rapidly digested and lead to sudden increase in blood sugar levels. The spikes are followed by lows and furthermore sugar cravings. Clearly, these are the cause of weight gain and constipation & lifestyle related disorders. Good Carbs As a thumb rule, carbohydrates that are in their natural form or are rich in fibre are healthy. Carbohydrates that should be included in your diet are the ones that do not raise the blood sugar levels quickly. Moreover, they should provide all the essential nutrients to your body. You should eliminate deserts that are low in nutrients and high amounts of sugar. Instead you should include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet which are beneficial for the overall health of the body.
