Many fad diets claim we should eliminate dietary carbohydrate in order to lose weight. The truth is that calories from all sources need to be managed for weight control For this discussion, read the following article: Rodriquez, D. (2013 Mar 27) Good vs. Bad Carbohydrates. Retrieved from http://www.everydayhealth.com/diet-nutrition/101/nutrition-basics/good-carbs-bad-carbs.aspx Next create a post that answers the following questions in your own words based on what you learned.

1) How does the information in the article compare to what you have heard about different types of carbohydrates?

There are two types of carbohydrates such as simple carbohydrates often referred as “good carbohydrates” and complex carbohydrate often referred as bad carbohydrates. Good carbohydrates are the compounds which have specific simple sugars and easily digested & broken down by the enzymes in the body. Complex carbohydrate products such as legumes, whole grains etc possess sugars, which have long chain and branched & difficult to digest therefore, it is crucial to avoid as for dietary purpose.

2) Identify two specific choices (food or beverage) you might make in order to replace a ‘bad carb\' with a ‘good carb\' in your own diet. (Choose examples beyond those listed in the article and from two different food groups)

I do replace complex bad carbohydrates with simple sugar syrups or potatoes or soda or fibers, food & fruits. Potatoes are complex carbohydrates containing but inside the body, they deliver simple carbohydrates.

3) The average American tends to consume excessive simple and added sugars (‘bad’ carbs), while lacking in ‘good carbs’ from dairy, whole grains, fruit and starchy vegetables. Do you agree? Have you observed this? Think about a time when you have observed others eating at a restaurant, cafeteria, or even family members at home. Discuss your observation and thoughts about carbohydrate consumption of others.

Yes, average American tends to consume excessive simple and added sugars (‘bad’ carbs), while lacking in ‘good carbs’ from dairy, whole grains, fruit and starchy vegetables. I have observed in a few restaurants or even family members at home. This is because of lack of efficient dietary plans to reduce glycemic activity in their body and due presence of heavier workload etc. Insufficiency of rice products, high cost oriented products containing simple sugars often making average Americans to consume excessive bad carbohydrate containing products.

Carbohydrates are going to generate less energy compared to the fats and most of the carbohydrates are from whole grains and rice starch etc and the biochemical reactions of glucose is going to generate less energy upon “glycolytic oxidation” followed by oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, those both good carb and bad card enable nutrition in the humans. Proteins are going to undergo oxidation via ornitine and urea cycle to synthesize nucleic acids where as biochemical oxidation of fats may generate high amount of energy but may generate high cholesterol may not a good nutritious factors. So that vegetable diets are more fibre containing diets essential for the body compared to fatty or oily diets.

Prebiotics are the nutritional strategies involve the use of nutrients to directly encourage the growth of existing healthy biota thus increasing therapeutic strategy to treat ulcerative colitis, obesity. Prebiotics are going to supplement nutritional products to commensual healthy gut microbiota for their growth finally to enable higher synthesis of vitamins & cofactors beneficial to humans. Probiotics is the strategy that involves the direct consumption of healthy biota

Very low and low calorie diets are initially leading much fluid loss and glycogen breakdown for the synthesis of glucose to generate energy for metabolic & physiological activities. Therefore, immediate & initial effects of low calorie diet are not forming \"a lean body mass\" or \"burning of fat\". These are consequent events after a few days of continuing low calorie diet

A nutrient dense food contains phytochemicals, minerals etc but French fries are composed of only carbohydrates so that it is less nutrient-dense food
