A
  1. should be appropriate to reach & maintain desirable body weight, particularly in insulin-resistant individuals

Q

carb A-level evidence

A
  1. Carbohydrate intake should emphasize nutrient-dense carbohydrate sources that are high in fiber and minimally processed.
  2. Eating plans should emphasize non-starchy vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains, as well as dairy products, with minimal added sugars. (B-level)
    The emphasis is on total carbohydrate – more important than the source or type therefore food choices can include sugars and starches
    A target of 60 grams to total grams of carbohydrate is often useful

A
  1. cellulose
  2. hemicellulose
  3. lignin
35
Q

cellulose

A
  • all plants; skins
