Most Indian meals are almost 60% carbohydrates, and that’s not the problem —
the type of carb you choose decides your sugar levels, energy, and health.
❌ Refined carbs like white rice, maida, puri & fast-digesting foods cause:
• Sudden sugar spikes
• More cravings
• Weight gain
• Higher diabetes risk
🌾 Smart carbs like millets, ragi, jowar, bajra, rolled oats & brown rice give:
✔ Slow, steady energy
✔ Better blood sugar control
✔ Improved metabolism
✔ Longer fullness
✔ Healthier weight
✨ Don’t cut carbs. Choose smart carbs. Choose health.
