Today we are talking about carbohydrates, aka “carbs.” Carbs are so scary these days that you could dress up as bread for Halloween and send chills down people’s spines (maybe a slight exaggeration). Diet culture has us thinking that we’re going to gain a ton of weight and instantly get diabetes if we have carbs, but that’s not how it works.

 

We’re going to break down the science behind carbs, how to figure out what amount of carbs is right for YOUR body’s individual needs, and how to use the skills of intuitive eating to figure this out…no tracking or measuring required!

 

Key Takeaways

 

1. What even are carbs?

2. What happens when you don’t eat enough carbs

3. What happens when you eat too many carbs

4. How many carbs do you need per day?
