You can read all abouthte 5 Day Pouch Test here...(http://www.5daypouchtest.com/ ) It's aminly for people who have after a year or so, fallen off track with the rules thinking their pouch is stretched and that it no longer works...This test shows them that it is NOT broken...It's just a user malfuction usually! White carbs are simple carbs...I refer to them as "white" because they are your "white" flour products, White sugar...white rice...white potatoes...white pasta...starchy foods...It's just easier to identify as simple carbs...I know I often interchange white and simple...They are totally different than complex carbs which are your whole grains, whole wheat pastas, brown rice, fruits beans...Most anything with fiber...Hope that helps!
