Not sure what complex carbs are?
Here are some great examples you can include during the day 🍠🥦
Pair them with protein, a bit of fat, and veggies/fruit for balanced meals that keep you full and satisfied longer 💪
Why are complex carbs important?
✔️ Slower digestion: take longer to break down, help to keep your blood Sugar stable - less cravings
✔️ Sustained energy: slower digestion helps to provide energy for 3-4 hours, instead of just 30-60 min
✔️ Increased satiety: contain fiber that helps you feel fuller for longer
✔️ Nutrient dense: with vitamins, minerals, and fiber
Save this for later and share it with someone who needs it 🫶
