Starches Equals Sugars by Afriglobalmedia: 6:33pm On Jan 10, 2017
Many Nigerians do not give good meaning to what is known as "Balanced diet".
Research proves that 70% of Nigerians eat more starchy foods than protein foods.

However, eating too much starch has the same effects as eating too much sugar because starches are made of many glucose molecules.
If you have a medical condition that involves blood sugar regulation issues such as diabetes, hypoglycemia or polycystic ovarian syndrome, note that the starches in your diet could be worsening your health.

Most people believe that Bread, Potatoes, Yam, Rice, and Noodles are healthier than popularly known "Amala", Garri and wheat food, but your body does not really see the difference, since all of these foods are broken down to sugars.

We, therefore, advice that you keep an eye on both your starch intake to keep blood sugar levels under control.
