What Are Carbs, Exactly?
They're nutrients that break down into glucose, your body's primary source of energy, and tons of foods contain them. "Carbs get a bad rap, but we need them to keep our brain working and our heart pumping," says Tanya Zuckerbrot, RD, the author of The Miracle Carb Diet.

Sorry Ms. Author, but my body's primary source of energy is FAT. My brain works by running predominantly on KETONES, and I've heard everyone's heart runs on SATURATED FATS for its preferred fuel. Not carbs. |
