Hint: your measuring tool is with you all the time. Your FIST! One fist = one portion of most carbs like fruit, pasta\/rice, and cereal. When it comes to snack foods (pretzels, chips, popcorn), two reasonable handfuls is about right. And for dried fruits, the center of your palm is your guide.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When is the right time to have carbs?<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>GO carbs is nearly every meal and snack.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>SLOW carbs is occasionally or before\/during\/after exercise.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>WHOA carbs are best to limit, avoid, or consume only around activity.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more about GO, SLOW, and WHOA foods, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/educational\/wecan\/downloads\/go-slow-whoa.pdf\">full list!<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the rise in popularity of the paleo and keto diets, carbohydrates are sure getting a bad reputation.
