Study Notes
Carbohydrates
- Carbohydrates are a major source of energy for the body.
- Scientists have noted that high sugar foods can quickly raise blood sugar, potentially causing heart disease.
- Complex carbohydrates are often found in foods like whole-grain bread.
- Simple sugars are quickly absorbed by the body.
- Some examples of simple carbohydrates are fruit and milk.
- Complex carbohydrates are absorbed more slowly by the body.
- These are often found in starchy foods like bread, pasta, and potatoes.
- It is important to find a healthy balance of foods, and portion control, to avoid health problems.
- Limiting simple sugar intake may help prevent issues like high blood sugar and potentially prevent diseases.
