Tag: Starchy vs non starchy

Every single vegetable contains some amount of carbohydrates, making a truly zero-carb vegetable a myth. However, some non-starchy vegetables contain such a minimal amount of carbs that their impact on blood sugar is negligible, fitting seamlessly into low-carb or keto diets.

According to the CDC, fewer than 1 in 10 Americans consume the recommended daily amount of vegetables, suggesting most people should be eating more. However, in the pursuit of healthier eating, the question arises: **can I eat unlimited vegetables on a diet** for weight loss without any downsides? The short answer is no, and understanding why is crucial for balanced nutrition.
