most cereals are junk.. loaded with sugar.. and bad carbs that burn very fast.....if u want a decent cereal try the VECTOR cereal.. atleast it has proteins and decent carbs. still some bad sugar in there though

True that if the cereal has more carbs, it is probably bad carbs from pure sugar. Total is a good cereal.Whole grain cereals are better for you. Don't get caught up in this thing that you need a ton of carbs to exercise. You need some protein, too. Protein lasts in your system a little longer. The good carbs (complex carbs)last longer and are healthier.Examples of good carbohydrate foods: Fruits Vegetables Beans Legumes Nuts Seeds Whole grain breads Whole grain cereals Whole grain pastas Some dairy products http://www.mamashealth.com/diets/goodcarbs.asp

You shouldn't aim for a breakfast rich only in carbohydrates. A balance between proteins, lipids and carbs should be achieved, though about 70% of the energy intake should be taken from carbs. Look at this: http://www.time-to-run.com/nutrition/nimages/baldiet.gif
