Side Dishes (Med-High Carb)

Carbohydrates: The Fun Part of Nutrition! Who doesn't love them!? We all enjoy the energy and satisfaction they provide. However, it's crucial to remember that not all carbs are created equal. This distinction is key to a healthy diet.

For instance, a serving of highly-processed, refined carbohydrates like potato chips offers little in terms of nutritional value beyond calories and fat, often lacking essential fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Conversely, a bowl of nutrient-dense, complex carbohydrates such as lentils provides significant amounts of protein, dietary fiber (which aids digestion and promotes satiety), and a wealth of micronutrients.

Be picky and discerning when selecting your carbohydrate sources. Prioritize whole, unprocessed options—like whole grains (oats, quinoa, brown rice), legumes (beans, lentils), starchy vegetables (sweet potatoes, squash), and fruits. These choices deliver sustained energy, support overall health, and are truly the best fuel you can give your body.
