Below are three of the best carbs you should incorporate into your diet.
- Oats
Perfect for breakfast, oats are a great source of carbohydrates that will give you fibre. Oats are low in sugar but easy to add flavourto. But if you have a sweet tooth, try adding some blueberries or drizzle with honey. Quaker Oats sell a really good 2-minute microwaveable sachet in avariety of yummy flavours.

- Quinoa
Admittedly, I hadn’t even heard of quinoa until recently, but after doing some research, it is a great source of both protein and carbs. Great news if you’re a vegetarian. It is quite easy to cook.

- Sweet Potatoes
Taste great and also have slightly more nutrients than regular potatoes. As they are a low GI food, sweet potatoes will release energy more slowly into the blood stream, which means that you won’tget that sudden spike. Try making sweet potato chips or mash with peas (recipe to follow in a later blog post)
