This is Part 3 in our three part series on the 3 main macronutrients: protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Along with frosted tips, fanny packs, neon, and high waisted pants, the low carb craze of the 90’s is back! But why are people ditching carbs again? What makes this macronutrient worse than the others?
And on the other side of the aisle, we’ve got the The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that still advocates ALL people eat a diet high in carbohydrates, regardless of activity level. Should we really be eating THIS many carbs? 
In this episode we give you the rundown of exactly what carbs are, what they do, where they fit in your diet, why different people need different amounts, and how to figure out how much is right for you.
