What is a carb?

276 views

To premise, let me give an example of my understanding of diet:

>Grog eat meat (protein)

>Grog lift big rock

>Grog eat more meat (protein)

>Grog lift bigger rock

Yeah I don’t really get anything else. I see “low carb high protein” diets around sometimes, but I don’t entirely understand what that’s meant to mean. If there’s any other dietary explanations people can provide (I assume there’s more than carbs and protein) then I’d welcome those too.

A carb Is short for Carbohydrate, which is basically a form of sugar that your body can pull nutrients out of and needs in order to burn energy. Most things have either simple or complex carbs, with simple ones being less “filling” and shorter lasting (like sweets) or complex, which are slower burning and more useful for your body over longer periods for sustained energy (like brown rice).

You need protein, carbohydrates, and fats in varying amounts for your body to work properly.
