Proper nutrition is one of the most important factors in the health of the body, preserving youth and beauty. This is due primarily to the huge selection of products, many of which are of little use, or even harmful.
Speaking about proper nutrition for being overweight, they often focus on the dangers of foods containing carbohydrates. It is impossible to completely exclude this essential element - carbohydrates replenish the energy supply, help maintain activity during the day. The problem lies in the fact that often the amount of carbohydrates consumed is several times higher than the amount of energy expended, and the remainder accumulates in the form of fat folds.
Distinguish between simple and complex carbohydrates. The main difference lies in the rate of breakdown: simple carbohydrates produce energy quickly, and the excess body stores in reserves; complex carbohydrates are first broken down into simple ones, and only then they are converted into energy.
Simple carbohydrates are found in most delicious foods: white breads and buns, all kinds of sweets and sodas.
You can replace simple carbohydrates with rye bread and unrefined cereals. These foods contain complex carbohydrates. Due to this, saturation occurs quickly, and carbohydrates are broken down slowly. Thus, the body is filled with energy gradually and is in an active state for much longer.
