That’s because carbs are broken down into glucose (blood sugar) relatively fast, which can cause a marked rise in blood sugar levels.

“Vegetables, fruits, and whole grains provide more nutrition per calorie than refined carbohydrates and tend to be rich in fibre,” notes Harvard Health.

As it explains, “your body digests high-fibre foods more slowly — which means a more moderate rise in blood sugar“.

The health body adds: “Avoid highly refined carbohydrates such as white bread, pasta, and rice, as well as candy, sugary soft drinks, and sweets.”
