Are carbs healthy?

Spoiler: absolutely! Carbohydrates often have a bad reputation. They are seen as "fattening." Think of the many keto-diets that avoid all carbs. At KarmaKarma, we do not focus on short-term crash diets but on your long-term health and well-being.

The idea that carbohydrates are unhealthy is a myth: they play a crucial role in our well-being! To stay fit, you should not avoid carbohydrates but choose the right ones. Let’s find out more! 💛

1. Carbohydrates are a primary source of energy: They boost your mood and energy levels by stimulating serotonin production in the brain, which is linked to feelings of happiness and well-being. In short, carbs are not just our main energy source but also essential for overall wellness and mental health. You don’t want to miss this!

2. They are essential for the brain: Your brain uses glucose as its main energy source. Without enough carbs, your cognitive functions can decline, affecting concentration and mental performance. Remember, carbs fuel your brain!

3. Support a healthy weight: Complex carbohydrates, like whole grains, help with weight management by keeping you full and preventing overeating. Swap refined carbs, like white bread and pasta, for whole grain versions rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals for lasting satiety. Yay!

4. Avoid sugar spikes: Fiber-rich carbs help regulate your blood sugar by slowing glucose absorption. This prevents energy crashes and keeps you stable and energetic. A steady blood sugar level is key to maintaining energy and mood. Carbs are your steady buddy for blood sugar control!
