Oats
A healthy grain, oats are loaded with vitamins, fiber, and minerals. Oats composition is 70 percent carbs, 15 percent protein, and the remainder 15 percent fats. There are 103 grams of carbs and 16.5 grams of fiber in each cup. However, when oatmeal is made from old-fashioned oats, the cabs drop to 27 grams of carbs and 4 grams of fiber. Oats lower “bad” cholesterol and blood sugar levels and keep the body feeling full longer.
Bananas
An average banana has 27 grams of carbs with some starch, some fiber, and a lot of sugar. Although the sugars occur naturally they can prove to be an issue for diabetics. It is recommended to avoid sugar from the food that is processed and the advantageous way for sugar intake is from natural foods. There are many vitamins and minerals found in bananas including potassium, manganese, and vitamin B6.
