Source of carbohydrates
  • There are many sources of carbohydrate. Some carbohydrates are considered 'good' and some are considered 'bad.'
  • Carbohydrates come from such things as anything made out of flour, breads, cereals, Pizza, pastas, cakes biscuits/cookies, chips/fries, potato chips/crisps, corn chips, sugars, and all products containing sugar.
  • The above examples are often be seen as 'bad'carbohydrates because they are refined processed carbohydrates rather than naturally occurring carbohydrates. If you are unsure that constitutes a refined processed carbohydrate, there is a list of those further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
  • Sources of natural 'good' carbohydrates are fresh vegetables and fresh fruits. They are also excellent sources of fiber.
