Why are people trying to avoid carbs?

Carbs help you brain function and the news and film industry are supporting this.

excess weight?

Processed carbs screw with your insulin and other hormones and are energy dense causing you to store fat. As we have plenty of them lying around the cupboard and fridge we are constantly in a state of excess energy plus the screwed up hormones ruins your appetite control and fat burning mechanisms.

Read Good Calorie Bad Calorie by Gary Taubes. Its out there in the wild and it goes right into how the whole process works. Very interesting and full on reading.

There are good carbs and there are bad carbs.. You need to stay away from the bad ones only

Some people don't do well on excess Carbs...myself included. About 50 - 100 grams a day is perfect, with a 200 - 300 gram day once a week.

People watch shows like Operah, and think carbs are bad

 

[SEOFrog]

Mainly because the carbs you find in most food you can buy are not very good for you! The good carbs happen to be too expensive for most people to afford.

As someone trying to gain weight I say bring 'em on! Five years from now it'll be something else. I don't think they've slammed chicken yet.

Cutting out carbs is bizarre in my opinion. It's a quick fix to weightloss for the lazy. Just eat a balanced diet and exercise.

Can't imagine it being great for you to cut out completely. As everyone says a balanced diet with exercise is the best way. Exercise will do a lot for your physical and mental health.

Reaching your fitness goals is simple. If you think you shouldnt be eating something, you probably shouldnt be. If you are not active everyday, your doing it wrong.
