Carbohydrates are the starches, sugars, and fibers found in grains, fruits, seeds, nuts, vegetables and milk products. Carbs have several roles in living organisms, including energy transportation, as well as being structural components of arthropods and plants.
Carbohydrates are commonly blamed for weight gain, but the truth is that they are vital for healthy weight control. For example, CDC recommends getting at least 14 grams of dietary fiber for every 1,000 calories which you consume. But the only sources of dietary fiber are in carbohydrates; therefore, it's nearly impossible to get sufficient fiber on a low-carb diet.
Since carbohydrates contain dietary fiber, they help digestion and assist in regularity. This is one important benefit of eating whole food sources of carbohydrates, like - legumes, whole grains, seeds, nuts, fruits, and vegetables, instead of opting for processed foods.
A carbohydrate-deficient diet may cause fatigue, headaches, difficulty concentrating, weakness, constipation, nausea, bad breath, and mineral and vitamin deficiencies.
There are two types of carbohydrates: simple and complex.
Simple carbohydrates refer to sugars with a simple molecular construction of one or two parts. Simple carbohydrates include sugars found naturally in foods such as fruits, milk, and milk products. Simple carbs also include sugars added during food processing and refining.
Complex carbohydrates refer to sugars with a complex molecular structure of 3 or more parts. Due to the complex structure of these molecules, it takes the human body longer to break them down to produce the glucose it needs for energy. Complex carbs include whole grain bread and cereals, starchy vegetables and legumes.
