Anything that is a white carbohydrate, including oats, all converts to sugar in the body and, to the body, sugar is poison! They might be dressed up in fancy packaging, and often carry labels with misleading health benefits, but we need to realise our body was never designed to consume them.Whether they are simple or complex, all CARBS are still eventually turned into sugar by our body. The complex ones just take a little longer. Every time we eat any CARBS, complex or not, we are eating sugar. Too much sugar makes us fat, and will eventually lead to a whole host of problems, illnesses and diseases.
