Carbohydrates (carbs) are the main source of energy for our brain and our body. \u00a0They are a macronutrient along with protein, fat, minerals, vitamins and water. Macronutrient means we need \u201ca lot\u201d of them. A lot is relative to each person. Your age, gender, height, weight, and activity level all play a part in how much each person needs. \u00a0Carbs have 4 calories per gram. Now that you have an understanding of what carbohydrates are and why we need them, let\u2019s look at the research.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">A study from Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital, Boston, which tracked more than 15,000 Americans for a quarter century, found a U-shaped link between carb intake and life expectancy. \u00a0The study showed those who ate less than 40% of daily calories from carbs (low carb) or more than 70% (high carb) were more likely to have a lower life expectancy than those who ate a moderate-carb diet, 50-55%. \u00a0(Published August 2018 edition of \u201cThe Lancet\u201d) Likely reasons for those that ate a high carb diet having a lower life expectancy are those individuals most likely ate too many refined carbs (sugar) and\/or gluten and\/or fried foods. \u00a0All of these can lead to inflammation and when inflammation is present are body is more susceptible to disease. The low carb dieters may lack in certain important nutrients and antioxidants. As you can see, moderation is key. Please note if a doctor has prescribed you then you should follow his\/her guidelines. \u00a0If however, you\u2019re just trying to find a quick fix to drop weight, I suggest you eat carbs in moderation and use the fuel to exercise and burn calories and fat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">I suggest you limit your refined carbs (such as: \u00a0sweets, baked goods, candies, etc.). You should also limit your fried foods and foods that contain gluten. Gluten is a protein molecule often times found in foods that contain wheat. \u00a0The carbs you should eat are: veggies, fruit, gluten free grains, potatoes, yams, rice, etc.\u2026 Track how you\u2019re feeling and your measurements to help determine how many carbs you should eat and keep in mind the percentages are based on your total caloric intake.<\/p>\n<p><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  class=\"size-medium wp-image-7556 aligncenter pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-80x80.jpg\"  alt=\"\"  width=\"300\"  height=\"300\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-300x300.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-110x110.jpg 110w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-380x380.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-1160x1160.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-750x750.jpg 750w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-620x620.jpg 620w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-850x850.jpg 850w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/health-and-fitness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/24162113\/jamie-matocinos-745630-unsplash.jpg 1500w\" ><\/p>\n<p>Scott Keppel is the owner of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scottstrainingsystems.com\/\">Scott\u2019s Training Systems<\/a>, a world-class coaching facility in Chandler, Arizona.
