Carbs? What are they

[sandysan]

Hello
I'm diabetic type 2, this might sound a bit weird , I just read a post and I always thought carbohydrates were just sugars in food? When they say cut out carbs? What exactly is carbs ? As this person said carbs are more than just sugars ,

Thanks

If you do a quick search on 'Carbohydrate' on this site https://www.diabetes.co.uk/?s=carbohydrate you'll get a bunch of really helpful links. Hopefully then 'cutting your carbs' will make a bit more sense
