Carbohydrates (carbs) often get a bad rap, especially when it comes to gaining weight. However, carbs aren’t all bad. They have many health benefits and so have a rightful place in our diet. As a matter of fact, the body actually “needs” carbs as a primary source of energy. That being said, some carbs can be better for you than others. Conversely, the body can function without carbs. This metabolic adaptation is called ketosis and occurs where there are extremely low amounts of carbohydrates in the diet for extended periods of time.
