What are complex carbs ?
[/quote]
They're the "good" carbs that take longer to digest so basically the sugar is broken down slower and gives you steadier supply of the energy so less of the sugar is turned into fat. They're basically found in things like vegetables, whole grain breads and cereals, legumes (beans), brown or wild rice, some fruits, and contain high amounts of fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
They're not highly refined like simple carbs.
