I should clarify what I said yesterday about plant based carbs. It's not about what carbs to eat, so much as it is about what carbs not to eat.
NO
wheat
potatos
rice
beans
grains
Carbs should be veggies only.
NO processed sugars.
Check out the Paleo diet. I feel very good when I do this diet. The downside is that it is expensive to eat strictly Paleo style.
Lean meat
veggies
some fruit
