The Rule:

If you’re a guy: Add 1-2 scooped handfuls of your chosen complex carbs to your meals.

If you’re a woman: Add 1 scooped handful of complex carbs to your meals.

Get this done and you’ll minimise sugar spikes and avoid the energy crash we talked about yesterday.

Complex carbs are digested slowly, you’ll get a steady release of energy. Plus, you’re adding much-needed fibre, which helps with digestion, gut health, weight management, curbing sugar cravings, and even lowering cholesterol (if that’s something you’re dealing with). {1}

Complex carbs also pack vitamins and minerals that will help your body use energy more efficiently, improve your eyesight, hair, nails, memory, and even help you sleep better.

Not bad for a couple handfuls of carbs, right?

From your complex carbs list, add a portion of complex carbs (1 palm-sized for women, 1-2 for men) to your meals.
