Carbs are brain food

In the never ending quest for the perfect body sometimes I think people forget about have a good quality functioning brain.

High protein diets are good but only with the addition of some carbs. Carbs are the only thing that feed your brain. Protein may grown those muscles which will increase the metabolism rate which will increase the rate of weight loss but don't you want to be able to think at the same time.

Real Age today put out a paragraph which contained this -

A higher protein diet doesn't have to be carb free to help
you lose weight.

Stop listening to those that claim you must eliminate carbs to lose weight. It is a balancing act.

Your body was created to combine protein and carbs just like vitamins and minerals - you need the combination not the individual.

Eat small portions of a variety of foods. Give your brain the food it needs.
