complex-carbsToday’s book excerpt . . . “Complex carbohydrates on the other hand, come from food sources that have not been refined and are in their natural state or mildly cooked. It is these complex carbohydrates, such as natural sugars and starches that supply the body with the fuel it can utilize for energy. Although the body can burn fats and proteins, it does not do so as efficiently as it does carbohydrates. The body converts excess carbohydrates into fats, which is essentially a storage form of fuel in which it can burn later when there is no source of carbohydrates.”
