18. Carbohydrate quality

It's important to understand the difference between complex and simple carbohydrates. Simple carbs are digested quickly and spike blood sugar, while complex carbs are digested more slowly and offer more nutritional value. Try to opt for foods with complex carbs over simple carbs, such as oats, whole grains, beans, brown rice, carrots, and quinoa.
