✅ Introduction

Think of complex carbohydrates as the long-term HODL in your diet, providing sustained energy through a gradual release. They're like the Bitcoin of nutrition, steadily fueling your body. On the flip side, simple carbohydrates are the quick trades, rapidly converting to energy like a swift transaction. Just like a diversified portfolio, a balanced diet embraces both types of carbohydrates for optimal nutritional gains.

🍚 Simple Carbohydrates:

😁Table sugar (sucrose): Found in various forms, such as granulated sugar, powdered sugar, and brown sugar.
🍇Fruits: Naturally occurring sugars in fruits, such as glucose in grapes and fructose in apples.
🍯Honey: A natural sweetener containing glucose and fructose.
🥞Maple syrup: Sweet syrup derived from maple trees, consisting of sucrose.
🍬Candy and sweets: Confectionery products often contain simple sugars like glucose, fructose, and sucrose.

Complex Carbohydrates:

🍞Whole grains: Brown rice, quinoa, oats, barley, and whole wheat are rich in complex carbohydrates.

🫘Legumes: Beans, lentils, and chickpeas provide complex carbohydrates along with fiber and protein.

🍠Vegetables: Starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn are good sources.

🍞Whole wheat products: Bread, pasta, and cereals made from whole wheat contain complex carbohydrates.

🤎Brown rice: A whole grain that offers complex carbohydrates and additional nutrients.

It's worth noting that complex carbohydrates generally provide more sustained energy due to their slower digestion and absorption compared to simple carbohydrates, which are quickly converted into glucose in the bloodstream. A balanced diet includes a mix of both types of carbohydrates for optimal nutrition.
