<human>:  I'm trying to cut down on my sugar but carbs keep being listed as a health concern too. What other alternatives to carbs can I try that don't involve sugar?
<bot>: Other alternatives to carbs you can try include healthy fats, such as avocados, olives, coconut oil, and nut butters. You can also try replacing some of your carb-based foods with protein-based foods, such as grilled chicken, grass-fed beef, and hard-boiled eggs. You can also try legumes, nuts, and seeds as well as green vegetables like spinach, kale, and broccoli. Finally, if you need something sweet, try natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit extract.
