]]> Comment on Carbohydrates Are Your Friend by DR http://standardamericandiet.wordpress.com/2008/04/26/carbohydrates-are-your-friend/#comment-13 DR Mon, 28 Apr 2008 04:27:22 +0000 http://standardamericandiet.wordpress.com/?p=9#comment-13 Hi Teresa, Great post. You have a knack for making the subject very understandable. That's the hard part for me. I loved the paragraph...Here a simple rule: if you are eating carbs that came directly from nature, then they are okay. But if the carbs you are eating have been processed in any way, they are likely to make you gain weight. So stay away from those. Branching off of that statement, if fruits & veg are more accessible in their natural form than grains or beans (both are inedible in their raw form), why do all of the gov't food guides/pyramids treat grains as the most important food to eat??? My 2 cents Hi Teresa,
