GOOD CARBS VS. BAD CARBS 💥 Which side are you? — Hi guys! I've noticed this silly trend in nutrition that is seemingly mirroring what is going on elsewhere in society where everything has to be sugar-coated in political correctness. In the case of nutrition, there's this idea now that there's no such thing as a bad carb or a good carb, so long as you eat everything in moderation or are meeting your calorie goals. — 🍩 Well I'm here to tell you, it's time welcome sanity back to the table. A deep fried donut is an example of a bad source of carbohydrates. I'm not saying this ironically, or to be funny—a deep fried donut made of refined white flour is actually bad! Shocker! These foods are not healthy to eat, even in moderation, though eating one here or there won't kill you. — 🥔 The example of a “good” carb source on the right is a sweet potato. It is a cellular source of carbohydrates, meaning that the starches are contained in plant cells, which make the glucose contained within more slowly absorbed into your body. The sweet potato is also a source of numerous nutrients, such as potassium, beta carotene, and resistant starch. — Calories matter, but let's stop the madness. Quality matters too. Any questions? 👊🏼 — Love you guys. 🤗♥️ Max • • • • • #weightloss #iifym #nutrition #glutenfree #flexibledieting #cleaneating #paleo #macros #protein #sugarfree #lchf #weightlossjourney #dairyfree #healthyeating #keto #gains #healthyfood #lowcarb #atkins #ketosis #exercise #lavkarbo #healthylifestyle #fitfood #lowcarbhighfat #ketogenic #healthyliving #instafit #nosugar #physique
Coffee vs. “coffee”! ☕️ — ☝🏼 Most frozen coffee drinks are loaded with sugar and fat which can make you feel bloated, while a simple iced coffee has more coffee, and no sugar and fat. Certainly good news for our waistlines but also for overall health! — 🔬 The literature favoring coffee as a means of improving life and healthspan seems to be weighed in favor of consumption (at least for the general population—everyone is different). — 🎉 In a recent study, people who consumed 1 cup of coffee a day (including decaf) were 12% less likely to die from heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and respiratory and kidney disease over 16 years compared to those who didn't drink coffee. People who drank 2-3 cups per day were 18% less likely. — ✅ The notable thing about this research was that the study population was highly diverse (this is called population heterogeneity)—it was varied in ethnic makeup, encompassing African-Americans, Japanese-Americans, Latinos and white people. This means that the effect is more likely to apply to the general population (although still, its a correlation, which can not prove causation). — ❓How does coffee work for you? Does it make you feel good? Or jittery? Let me know. 👇🏼 — Study referenced: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28693036 • • • • • #weightloss #healthyfood #healthyeating #cleaneating #healthylifestyle #nutrition #healthyliving #weightlossjourney #healthychoices #protein #fitfood #coffeetime #cafe #iifym #instafit #glutenfree #healthylife #exercise #organic #coffeelover #fitnessjourney #gains #wellness #coffeeaddict #getfit #fitgirl #fitnessmotivation #fitspiration #plantbased #muscle
