Simple carbohydrates vs. complex carbohydrates: What’s the difference?
Fiber and starches are complex carbs, while sugars are simple carbs. The secret to weight losss is to choose complex carbs more often than simple carbs. Too many simple carbs can contribute to weight gain.
Here’s the order in which the liver processes calories. The first carbohydrate to be processed by the liver is ethanol; that is, intoxicating alcohol. Next, excess carbohydrates are converted into glycogen, which is stored in the liver. If your glycogen (carbohydrate) storage is full and you consume more food, it will be stored as fat and you will gain weight. If you do not consume food and your glycogen (carbohydrate) storage is empty, then your body will consume fat and you will lose weight.
