Book Synopsis
Carbohydrate is the most consumed class of food in the world. Most people say the reason they consume more carbohydrates is that it seems to be everywhere. It is very accessible. However, while most people enjoy eating it, some people are restricted to only a limited amount of carbs daily.Carbohydrates are an energy-giving food. This means that carbs give energy to the body, but too many carbs can have an effect on blood sugar. The best way to watch how many carbs you take in is through carb counting.
