In the swimming world, there is so much emphasis put on carbo-loading. At the end of practice, during a swim meet, or sometimes even in your own home, you hear your coach and parents nagging you to fill up on carbohydrates. Naturally, a swimmer will turn to pasta when confronted with this idea to carbo-load. Although pasta is a great option, it is not the only one! There is a broad spectrum of different types of grains.
When carbo-loading, it is suggested to choose whole grains. Why? In order to make regular white bread, white rice, or white pasta, it needs to be processed. During this process, much of the nutrients are stripped off and only sometimes added back. Searching the ingredient list on the food label is a great way to know if what you are buying is really whole grain. If you see the words “enriched†or “fortified†this means that the grain was processed and most likely stripped of some of its primary nutrients.
There are such a wide variety of grains that a lot of people do not know about or have never tried. Most of these grains are cheap and always 100 percent natural.
