Carbohydrates play an essential role in one's diet, and many carbohydrate-rich foods provide high nutritional value. Carbs have been getting a lot of bad press in recent years. However, along with fats and proteins, they are among the nutrients that benefit the body. Carbs help the body to not only survive but also thrive.
Whereas processed or refined carbs typically provide little to no nutritional benefits, carbohydrates from whole and unprocessed foods are generally nutritious and can provide many health benefits. When you check nutritional labels, be aware that fibers are listed under total carbohydrate count, but do not raise blood glucose levels.
