Good sources of carbohydrates are those found in whole foods, such as whole grains and vegetables. Refined carbohyrates are the ones to limit; these include processed foods such as cheez-its and pastries.

The two types of carbohydrates are simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates are referred to as fast-acting carbohydrates. Sugars are considered simple carbohydrates. Starches are considered complex carbohydrates.
Complex carbohydrates are typically long, multiple-branched chains of sugar units. Complex carbohydrates generally take longer to digest and absorb, because their sugar units first must be separated from the chain. Starch that has been processed into fine particles, such as flour, is much more quickly absorbable than unprocessed foods. Fiber is a complex carbohydrate that accounts for less than the four Calories per gram of other carbohydrates. Granola bars, carrots, apples,and any fruit or vegetable contain complex carbohydrates.
