Top 5 Healthy Carbohydrates

1. Fruit: sweet nature is so good for you, which is incredible. A great source of healthy carbohydrates, fruit fiber reduces the absorption of sugar so it burns more efficiently. And the fruit is loaded with a lot of vitamins such as my favorite super, vitamin C.

2. Vegetables: There is a reason mom insisted that you eat all sprouts. Many vegetables are rich in carbohydrates and fiber and energy power to be consumed daily.

3. Beans and legumes: beans are such a bad reputation, but here's a secret: rinse the beans were cooked in water to reduce gas. Beans and legumes are an excellent source of carbohydrates and protein for meatless Monday. Moreover, they are so versatile and tasty, you're missing if they are a staple in your regular diet.

4. Nuts and seeds. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire ... are actually so good for you is like another Christmas present. All nuts and seeds are a good source of carbohydrates. My favorites are the nuts and pumpkin seeds, which are both also loaded with healthy omega fats.

5. Grains: brown rice is full of good carbohydrates, fiber, minerals and vitamins found in the hull. The same happens with other whole grains, like grains of wheat, millet, quinoa and oats. Beware of grains, however. Allergies to wheat and gluten are sprouting.
