to eat or not to eat carbohydrats?

That was the question that was discussed on Saturday when Samfundet invited to debate. Two experts with different opinions started the debate. The first one was a speaker for low-carb diets. He had a really good presentation and some of what he said really made sense, but it also seemed like he hid behind fancy words. He made it impossible to follow the presentation at times with his medical vocabulary and his use of abbreviations. The other, that is the speaker on behalf of the states suggested diet, kept it simple. During the debate I learned some new things about both diets, but I am still not convinced a low-carb diet is necessary for a normal person. I would never try it unless I had to. A lot of good questions were asked from the audience, but it seemed to me some of them did not have enough knowledge to be really critical. It is no wonder that people start feeling better when they start caring about what they put in their mouths and tries to be healthy is it?

Anyway, at the end of the debate it became obvious that the parts also agreed on several aspects: no sugar, good fat and salt and think about what you eat and drink:) It is a really interesting subject, but remember: we only live once so enjoy it!
Questions are being asked:)
