hey again raynor. ive lost many pounds in the passed with your help but was curious as to what your current perspectives are on wheat vs simple carbs? is 100g of wheat still better for cutting than 100g of whitebread?
I think you are unfortunately getting "wheat" confused with "whole grain" or "Complex carbs".
There are two kinds of carbs you are referring to, simple and complex. Simple is digested quickly and results in a spike of insulin, whereas complex take much longer to digest and have much less insulin response.
If you are cutting, keeping your blood glucose low, and insulin response low, is critical. Thus, keeping simple carbs very low is essential.
On cutting, complex carbs should also be limited, as a lower supply of carbs will allow you to achieve depleted glycogen stores quicker, and thus faster fat losses.
