In this episode, Elwin Robinson gives you a practical road map for choosing the best carbohydrate source for YOUR body — not one-size-fits-all advice. He walks through the three biggest factors to consider in order: whether you react to it (allergies, intolerances, sensitivities, and gut infections), the glycemic index and glycemic load, and nutritional density. Along the way he covers your genetic carb type, insulin resistance testing, how to lower a meal's glycemic impact, the trade-offs of roots, beans, fruit, grains and refined sugars, and even how sun exposure and taste affect your choices — before revealing his own current favorite staple carb for the first time.
