Carbohydrates: These are produced by plants. They are rows of sugar molecules tied together like pearls on a string. The longer the chain and the more complex the molecule, the longer it takes to breakdown into sugar. Examples are fruits and vegetables.
Mental Energy: The brain is just 2% of our total body weight yet it consumes 20% of our total body energy. In other words, brain tissue is 10 times more energy-hungry than other tissues. The brain prefers slow and regular energy coming from sugars and fats (ketones). The brain does not like sugar “highs” and “lows” as it leads to mental sluggishness and drowsiness.
Carbohydrates Optimizer: This is a class of plant-based compounds. They are found in most plants that also contain sugar and serve to optimize the proper digestion of carbs.
Refined Carbohydrates: The process of refining strips carbohydrates of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, thus making them extremely easy to digest. Examples are starches and sugars.
Inflammation: This is a natural, initial reaction by the body against harmful elements being introduced to it. The common symptoms are redness, swelling, pain, and heat. Short-term, temporary inflammation is good as needed, but long-term inflammation leads to tissue breakdown and disease.
