While there are definitely plenty of BAD carbs out there (white bread, sugar, desserts, etc)<\/em> you don’t have to completely eliminate carbs from your diet in order to burn fat fast.<\/p>\n

When you choose the RIGHT carb sources (i.e. low glycemic and nutrient dense)<\/em> you can enjoy carbs, build lean muscle and burn bodyfat at the same time. <\/p>\n

Below you’re going to learn the Top 4 Carb Sources<\/strong> for getting ripped while leaving you feeling full and satisfied!<\/p>\n

Enjoy these foods (and the extra tips at the end of the article!)<\/em><\/p>\n


\n#4 – Berries & Cherries<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n\n\n
\n\"Berries<\/a>\n<\/td>\n\nBerries like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and cherries (although not technically a berry)<\/em> are some of the BEST carbs you can eat. They are high in fiber, packed with antioxidants, and score extremely low on the glycemic index, especially cherries which come with a GI of just 22.<\/u>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

I enjoy fresh berries for dessert several times a week and it’s an awesome, nutritious way to finish off any meal. Great as a snack, too! Try them on top of greek yogurt… Mmm<\/em> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n


\n#3 – Sprouted Grain Bread<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n\n\n
\n\"Sprouted<\/a>\n<\/td>\n\nSprouted grain breads, like Ezekiel 4:9 bread (one of the most popular brands of sprouted grain bread)<\/em> is a great way to include bread in your diet without all the issues associated with white breads and even 100% whole wheat breads.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Instead, Ezekiel bread is organic, sprouted, 100% whole grain flourless bread. A 2-slice serving even contains 8 grams of complete protein, and 6 grams of fiber, so don’t give up the bread, just choose the right kind!<\/p>\n


\n#2 – Quinoa<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n\n\n
\n\"Quinoa\"<\/a>\n<\/td>\n\nWhile brown rice is thought to be the healthy grain, there’s one even better, and that’s quinoa.<\/p>\n

Quinoa is a gluten-free grain that contains double the protein of brown rice along with greater fiber content and a lower glycemic load.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but quinoa is the ONLY grain to contain complete protein and the full spectrum of amino acids. It comes in several varieties, including “oatmeal-like”<\/em> flakes and it’s wholegrain rice-like form.<\/p>\n

Enjoy it as an oatmeal substitute for breakfast, in salads or casseroles, or as a wholesome whole-grain, high protein side item to any lunch or dinner meal.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n


\n#1 – Beans, Lentils, and other Legumes<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n\n\n
\n\"Beans,<\/a>\n<\/td>\n\nBeans and Lentils, part of the “legume”<\/em> family, just may be my #1 choice for a healthy carb. Packed with loads of fiber and protein, these guys come in so many different varieties that you’ll never get bored: lentils, chickpeas, black eyed peas, black beans, red beans, kidney beans, navy beans, butter beans, lima beans, pinto beans… and the list goes on.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Because of their fiber & protein content, along with their versatility, I eat something from the legume family in at least one of my meals daily. I’d highly recommend you’d do the same!<\/p>\n
