Do you avoid eating refined carbo like white rice, bread, prata, cakes….etc

[Sutebenu]

Carbs are necessary for energy but it's hard to get good carbs for cheap.

I try to limit it to one bowl of rice daily for the energy and completely cut off unnecessary sugary drinks.

I will have oats or wholemeal bread for breakfast. Less rice for lunch due to food coma in the afternoon. Dinner need to eat more rice cos need to feel sleepy at bedtime.

I actually eat more white rice for breakfast these days, as it gives me the energy I need. Lunch still rice but normal portion. Dinner I will cut.

I avoid bread, prata, cakes etc. It's funny people avoid rice but eat bread

I laugh at those people ordering food WITHOUT rice but eating those oily greasy vegetables and meat.

And proceed to order bubble tea less sugar after that.

 

[eggie011]

No, will eat whatever I like although I prefer noodles to rice.

 

[Shion]

Eat too much carbs will be bui bui

Eat lor, cut down progressively as I age.

Regardless simi carbs, ur pancreas function will decrease with age. If carbs increase blood sugar, insulin to store it in liver/muscles/fats, and too high blood sugar is bad, then the natural conclusion is eat less carbs, eat less overall as we age.

Liver ~100g, muscles ~400g, depends on gender/size/mass of cos. If we take total 500g, and assume 3/4 full (bcos learnt from gov 3/4 tank rule), that leaves 125g, split over 2-3 meals, i.e. 25g, 50g, 50g.

Move more, exercise, build muscles always gd, how many more decades can you keep doing that?

My parents gen (merdeka/pioneer) bo concept for gym/exercise. Just eat. So long I can compress that last 10 years of poor health down to a min. thats a win leow.

I notice more people are opting out or reducing refined carbo. They ask for less rice or no rice when eating chap cai png and no sugar for kopi or tea…..
They will avoid sugary drinks or dessert and even fast food.

that is because they do not exercise. if one exercise a lot these fast GI carb can be useful to promote faster recovery.

 

[charliebrown]

people always have e impression carb = rice, noodle, bread etc...
green vegetable + fruit are also carb...

 

[qcy888]

Jusy yolo and eat whatever you like now. There is no point living longer as social and economic situation will get worse in this cesspool with hyperinflation and over-population from 3rd world econ refugees.

 

[C_boliao]

Minimise, totally no carbo, cannot

 

[Dinoboyboy]

I dont go all out to avoid carbs, just skip desserts and sweetened or alcoholic beverages are enough. Yet i can hardly say no to any moist desserts… such as tiramisu and… others..

 

[RSKeisuke]

i still eat rice but cut out almost all sugar in my beverages.

 

[Hyruga]

Bbt is considered using premium tea leaves. Just choose less or no sugar.

 

[Mr Totoro 38]

more eating brown rice and protein rich meats.

more healthy for weight control

I don't think carb is that evil. You see construction workers eat Cai Fan add rice until become mountain. They are not fat lo.

The stomach is only so big.

The equation is;

More rice + less kiam = More kiam + Less rice

1st one - PG and MG
2nd one - All those after

Eating carbs give nrg. Our early generation who did coolie work also ate a lot of carbs including samsui women

They never had muscular bodies unlike the rich angmos who ate chicken chop, fish, beef.
