How many carbs should you eat?

This is an important question for people trying to lose weight or gain muscle mass? In order to have sufficient energy to perform your day-to-day tasks as well as hard workouts, you need to consume carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are the best source of energy and play an important role in both physical and mental endeavors. Carbohydrates provides the fuel that is needed by the brain to function properly.  They also have a big role in the proper functioning of the immunity system, blood clotting and fertilization. Try to incorporate good carbohydrates into your diet such as whole grain pasta, fresh fruit, vegetables, beans, whole grain bread and whole grain cereals.

What makes a food a carbohydrate? When the majority of calories from a particular food come from carbohydrates, it’s labeled as a carbohydrate, despite the fact that it may contain protein and fat.  For example,  pasta contains 340 calories per serving with 65g of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates consist of 4 calories per gram. Therefore 65 (grams) x 4=260.  260 calories divided by 340 total calories equals 0.76. That means that 76% of a serving of pasta consists solely of carbohydrates. This is the reason it’s classified as a carbohydrate and not protein or fat.

How many carbs should you eat in a day? It is often recommended that your daily intake should be 40-60% of your total daily calories. The percentage should be 40-50% if you trying to lose weight and 50-60% if you want to gain weight.

You should avoid quick releasing, white carbohydrates if your goal is to lose body fat. For example, white rice, white bread, sugar, regular cereal, white flour etc…

Carbohydrates are a great source of energy for your body and you should choose the ones which are good for your health and aid in your goal.

 (All Bodybuilding Recipes are 300 calories or more)

http://jbtlabs.com/bodybuilding/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/most-muscular-275x300.jpg

 

Ingredients:

Dressing and marinade:
Zest and juice of 3 limes
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Pinch cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

 Steak:
16 ounces flank steak, visible fat trimmed

Salad:
1 cup whole-wheat Israeli style couscous
1 medium red onion, chopped, (about 1 cup)
16 cherry tomatoes, halved (about 1/2 pint)
1/2 large cucumber chopped (about 2 cups)
4 cups arugula

Directions:

Pierce the steak several times with a fork.
Combine 1/4 cup lime juice, cilantro, olive oil, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Pour half the mixture into another small bowl. Add the lime zest, soy sauce, and garlic to one bowl to create the steak marinade, and add the balsamic to the the other to make the dressing.
Pour the marinade into a heavy-duty zip-top bag and add the steak. Remove any excess air and seal the bag, making sure the meat is thoroughly coated with the marinade. Refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.
Cover the dressing and refrigerate until you’re ready to eat.

Prepare the couscous according to package directions.
Pour the dressing into a large mixing bowl, then add the onion, tomatoes, cucumber, and arugula and toss well. Add the prepared couscous to the bowl and stir to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (Note: This can all be done ahead of time.)

Preheat the grill to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the meat from the refrigerator; allow to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes while the grill heats up.
