Carbohydrates are defined by the complexity of their molecular structure. With one or two sugar molecules, simple carbohydrates have a ’simple’ molecular structure. These carbs are digested and absorbed into the blood stream very quickly, and consequently will cause blood sugar to rise quickly. When your blood sugar is too high, your body responds with insulin.
An insulin spike can cause your glucose level to drop, called hypoglycemia. You may feel tired, dizzy and/or weak, and fat may not be burned properly. So while simple carbs will give you quick energy, it is important to be sure to keep consumption in moderation to keep your blood sugar relatively stable. The following are sources of simple carbs: refined sugar, dairy sugar, fruit sugar, refined flour.
