Re: Article: "Why eat less carvbs"
""What is the minimum daily requirement for carbohydrates? ZERO. "
.......... What is the minimum daily requirement for carbohydrates? ZERO.
What is the food pyramid based on? A totally irrelevant nutrient. "
Okay...he had me right up to this point. I thought we actually needed SOME for our brain function??
And here...
"I would go 20% of calories from carbs. Depending on the size of the person, 25 to 30% of calories from protein, and 60-65%"
Taking the low numbers and they add up to 105%...???? But then I suck at math....maybe I am doing it wrong??
Anyway...thanks for the read!

You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it. ~Maya Angelo~
