We do not intend to demonize carbohydrates as the sole culprit for the obesity epidemic we are facing. Instead, we hope to change the paradigm of a “healthy” diet model to help people look at carbohydrates as a useful tool rather than a dietary necessity. Although, it is true that chronic high carbohydrate consumption can lead to chronic high blood glucose and insulin levels, resulting in metabolic changes such as insulin resistance that increase the likelihood of becoming obese, it is possible for many people to consume carbohydrates and maintain a healthy profile.
