Carbohydrates have been blamed for excess weight gain since a long time. However, not much people are aware of the fact that there are two types of carbohydrates - good and bad, and it is consumption of the latter that is leading to an increase in the waistlines and numerous other health problems.

On the other hand, bad carbohydrates are full of calories, while being devoid of all the nutritional value and fibers.
