Carbs increase When people eat a food containing carbohydrates, the digestive system breaks down the digestible ones into sugar, which enters the blood.

Blood sugar levels rise.

Powerful spikes in blood sugar – can lead to an increased risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and overweight. There is also preliminary work linking high-glycemic diets to age-related macular degeneration, ovulatory infertility, and colorectal cancer.
