Carbs are found in many foods and you want to eat the good carbs versus the bad, otherwise the carbs, sugars abd starches will make you gain instead of lose. Carbs like white and wheat bread, sugar, white potatoes, white rice, pizza crust all raise sugar levels in the bloodstream. Rye Bread will slow dugestion, help keep you full and is a better carb choice. Food that is low glycemic improves weight loss. Fruits, veggies and whole grains are the best way to get your carbs. Barley, Brown Rice, Barley, steel cut oatmeal, quinoa, Kasha, Shredded Wheat. Beans and nuts are an excellent source of slowly digested carbohydrates kidney beans, lima, black beans. lentils, etc.
Flaxseeds are the ultimate low-carb fiber source, I add them to everything. They have soluble and insoluble fiber.
Low carb fruits are pears, peaches, plums, cherries, apples, kiwi, all kinds of berries.
So eat the good carbs because almost all the non starchy vegetables and low sugar fruits are high in both fiber and nutrients.
