Complex carbohydrates are a steady and healthy source of energy for kids. Unlike simple sugars, which give a quick energy boost, complex carbs break down slowly and keep kids full and active for longer hours. Here are the best complex carbohydrate foods that provide growing kids with the energy they need every day.
Rotis made from atta are full of fibre and energy—pair them with sabzi or dal for a complete meal.
These unpolished rice types digest slowly and are good for lunch with sambhar, dal, or curd.
Oats cooked with veggies, mustard seeds, and curry leaves give long-lasting energy and are easy to digest.
Whether sweet or savoury, dalia is full of fibre and good for breakfast or dinner.
A bowl of rajma with rice gives protein and complex carbs—good for active kids who need sustained strength.
Boiled or made into chaat, chana gives slow energy release along with protein and fibre.
