Carbe Diem!

Hi everyone, Olivia here! I am the UK dietetic intern taking over EatWell this week! I don’t know about you, but I can never turn down bread, pasta or rice. I know you may be thinking, “But those are carbs! Those are bad for you!” I’m here to tell you that thought isn’t true!

Being a dietetics major, people always ask me about what diets are best for them or what they can do to lose weight. Many people around me believe that carbs are bad for your body and will do more harm than good. That’s why I chose the topic of carbs and why they are good for you. I want to change people's minds and help them learn about the amazing things that carbs do for you and your body.

Carbs may seem scary, but there is a misconception (in my opinion) about them being bad for you. I have learned so much about carbs in the last few years in my classes, so I am so excited to share this information with you and inform you about carbs and how great (and tasty) they are!
