What if you eat a clean salad loaded with raw veggies? - that always does it for me. Or a fruit/greens smoothie.

- jasallen 12y agoThe fiber in the salad will of course help you with the full feeling. Many vegetables are chock full of carbohydrates, so it depends on your goals. If that's the only source of carbohydrates you are probably doing great, if it adds on top of bread and breakfast cereal and some noodles, etc, then the veggies are just adding more carbs.
- mjblack 12y agoIts not the type of food really thats the problem, it's processed foods and "low fat" diets. Processed carbs are easily digest and throw up your blood sugar levels. Insulin is released to counter this, which converts it into body fat. Raw "veggies" are better than smoothies because typically sugar is thrown in with it. Eating an apple is much healthier for you then drinking concentrated apple juice. The "low fat" diets are also a problem because to substitute the fat they add carbs, usually processed carbs. Keto diets limit the carb intake to about 80g per day and typically people on that diet feel more energy because the body is burning fat for fuel but importantly they are not in energy saving mode.
