                                While many people associate leafy greens with low-carbohydrate diets, some vegetables commonly referred to as "greens" are surprisingly high in complex carbohydrates. These options, particularly the leaves of starchy root vegetables, offer sustained energy, fiber, and a wide array of essential nutrients.
