    The things we eat and drink on a daily basis can impact our health in big ways. Too many carbohydrates, for instance, can lead to insulin resistance, which is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease and Type 2 Diabetes. But what are carbs, exactly? And what do they do to our bodies? Richard J. Wood explains.

    Remember it’s still important to eat these in moderation. Some people watch this and their takeaway is “never eat carbs again”.
    The human body is designed to eat a large variety of foods and it’s important to strive for balance.

    to all the people who are writing comments about how this video is a lie and goes against science: do realize that science constantly evolves, that's what makes science great. the information provided in this video is literally the latest science that is being uncovered, and replicated, across research institutions around the world. when i was a biochemistry student at a prestigious university as recently as 2012, we were learning that carbs were the optimal energy source for our cells. i speak to students who are currently taking the exact same course i took, and they are learning that carbs are in fact not the optimal energy source for our cells. they are learning about the role carbs play in insulin resistance. i didn't learn all this in uni 5 years ago. but a good scientist is always open to accepting new facts in light of new evidence. just because an idea contradicts how you've chosen to live your life, doesn't mean that idea is wrong. and please stop giving anecdotal evidence eg "I eat a high carb diet and I'M not fat", these are completely useless in forming arguments, convincing people, and making any sort of point at all.
    also- it is true that the rate of diabetes and heart disease is increasing in asia. but that's not because they are consuming more fats, but rather because they are consuming more packaged (ie processed) foods, which contain a lot of hidden sugars as well as other chemicals, in conjunction with leading more sedentary lives.

      If it was just ‘refined carbs’, white rice is a refined carb and has been eaten as a staple by asians for thousands of years, it doesn’t make sense.
      Your argument has a lot of missing information and has lots of holes.

It's the fact that they're eating more junk food. As far as rice, not only his it not the only food that people of Asian descent eat, as stated above leading a more sedentary life is also a contributor.

      Type 1 diabetes occurs when your immune system, the body’s system for fighting infection, attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. Scientists think type 1 diabetes is caused by genes and environmental factors, such as viruses, that might trigger the disease.

INstead of having it all released quickly quickening the process of insulin resistance. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.
