8 Things You Should Know About Carbs
.
1️Your brain’s preferred fuel source – in other words, you’re likely to be sharper and happier when you eat them.
.
2️ Your body’s preferred fuel source – more energy for training and ‘life’.
.
3️ 4 calories per gram – the same as protein, less than half of fat (9)
.
4️ You can eat carbs any time of day – ‘no carbs after 6’ is absolute nonsense.
.
5️ Eating carbs in the evening can help you sleep better.
.
6️ Fill the rest of your calories with carbs and fat after meeting your Protein Target (2g per KG of BW is a good goal) to suit your taste. However, if you limit your fat intake, you’ll be able to eat more.
.
7️ Whole Grain Carbs are rich in fibre – which is vital to good digestive and cardiovascular health.
.
8️ If you’ve already limited your fat-intake, cutting carbs CAN be a good idea if you’re moving to lower calories – because you don’t want to cut protein.
