These products are also packed with carbohydrates and offer few nutrients due to the long ingredient list of processed chemicals.
In addition, starches from this process are broken down very quickly in the digestive system, causing a spike in blood sugar and then a drop. This "crash" causes a person to become hungry again, and the cycle continues if they continue to reach for another high carb snack.
