carbohydrates

[Mortblanc]

Every root does not have the same content of either carbs, vitamins, minerals or fiber.

Look on the back of a bag of crisps! Following dietary standards one small bag of crisps is nearly a week of carb intake with no food value present. They are all carb and fat with ZERO basic nutrition.

Most of what we refer too as "junk food" is the high carb/high sugar product which perpetuates the quick conversion to glucose and resulting euphoric sugar buzz.

If all you are after is a carb unit then eating paper will do the trick. There is more food value in the packaging of most high carb breakfast cereals than in the contents of the box.
