Food Choices! Are all Calories Created Equal?

• Not all foods are equal even if they have similar
  protein, carbohydrates and fat values. There is

Why a Calorie Is Not a Calorie
Carbohydrates Carb foods all contain different
types of carbohydrates and varying levels of
fiber. Simple sugars, although considered to be a
carbohydrate, as mentioned previously, do not
react the same way in our bodies as a naturally
formed complex carbohydrate. Complex
carbohydrates are the goal! Try to make sure your
carbohydrate sources are high in fibre and
unprocessed.
