Complex Carbs vs Simple Carbs

What is the difference between a complex carb and a simple carb?

Not all carbs are created equal. Complex carbs, such as those found in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, provide fibre, vitamins, and minerals, while simple carbs, like sugary treats and starchy foods like white bread, offer quick energy but tend to lack nutrients.. Aim to include more complex carbs in your diet for sustained energy, better digestion, and improved overall health!
