These carbohydrates are also known as sugars, and you can easily notice if they are present in some product when you look at the Nutritional Facts label. All carbohydrates posses what is known as a glycemic index. The higher the glycemic index the simpler the carbohydrate. Just Google “glycemic index” and see what food contains high glycemic index carbohydrates. Basically the equation goes like this:
Avoid simple carbohydrates (sugars) during large meals, because they will only work against you by giving you the unwanted fat. If you can’t avoid them, limit their intake to occasional small snack between meals or to after workout shakes.
