What is a Carbohydrate?
A component of food that supplies energy (calories) to the body. One of the three macronutrients (along with proteins and fats). Three broad categories of carbohydrates are sugars (also called simple carbohydrates), starches (also called complex carbohydrates), and fiber. Except for fiber and resistant starch, carbohydrates cause more and faster blood glucose rises than the other macronutrients. Fiber and resistant starch are not digested in the small intestine, but have many positive effects.
Carbohydrates are incredibly tasty - no argument there! Potatoes, breads, pasta, and all the toppings that go on top of each one. My mouth waters just thinking about…Apple-Banana Bread, Blueberry and Oat Bran Muffins, Chewy Pizza Bread, Bagels, Spaghetti, Fettuccine Alfredo, Lasagna, Fried Garlic Pasta, Potato chips (so many great flavors to choose from), Baked Potatoes with lots of sour cream, bacon bits, cheese and chives…and of course Mexican Refried Beans, Fried Rice (all grains), and Chinese Chow Mien Noodles, do I need to go on?
Carb addiction knows no boundaries - men, women, athletes, businessmen, you name it - Carbs are just plain hard to resist…and if not controlled, they’ll quickly “pack on the pounds”!

How does CarbCruncher work to neutralize carbs?
CarbCruncher is a Phase 2 carb blocker. The powerful natural ingredients in CarbCruncher do not enter the bloodstream, instead they stay in the digestive tract and blocks the absorption of up to 60% of the calories from carbohydrates (starch) and cause the excess carbohydrate calories to be excreted and not digested. As such, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients from foods are still absorbed and utilized normally.
