Low Carb Dieting, Weight Loss Tips, Weight Loss Support, Dieting AdviceDEFINING CARBOHYDRATES IN THE DIET Carbohydrates provide the body with one of its main sources of energy - the other being 'fat'. Carbohydrates are essential to a healthy diet, even though they are scowled at by many in the Diet World these days. Why? Basically, they are associated with 2 evils of dieting: sugar and starch. The three main types of carbohydrates are: 1. Monosaccharides with a chemical structure of glucose, galactose and fructose. Monosaccharides are the simpliest of carbohydrates. 2. Disaccharides with a chemical structure of sucrose, lactose and maltose. 3. Polysaccharides with a chemical structure of starch (the most important carb) and cellulose. Polysaccharides are comprised of a long chain of saccharide molecules.  n
Examples of complex (unrefined) carbohydrate foods are cereals and vegetables that contain sugars, starch and cellulose, as well as vitamins and protein. Pure (unrefined) carbs act as quick energy sources and contain neither cellulose or nutrients. A good example is table sugar. About 50 - 60% of the daily diet should consist of complex carbohydrates. Diet Note: Studies indicate that individuals who are on a restricted carb diet soon regain the weight after getting off the diet. click here for Carbohydrate Metabolism Chart Information based on facts from the AMA (American Medical Association) More Low Carb & Carb Dieting Articles at Diet Bites
