A member asked:
If you go over your carb intake from eating good carbs like fruits and veggies.. is that okay since there good for you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Too much of a good thing can be bad. One should not go over her daily maximum calories, even if the calories are from good carbs, or she will still gain weight. The total number of calories eaten in a day is still very important.
