Only refined carbs drive insulin production to excess, and not complex carbs........

Refined sugars – whether it is a can of soda, a scoop of fat-free ice cream, or even a glass of orange juice – all of the ingested Sugar quickly rushes into your bloodstream. You typically feel a quick rush of energy. Your body then promptly reacts to this "sudden spike" in blood Sugar by calling on the pancreas to produce additional insulin to remove the excess Sugar from your blood. And for the moment, you have significantly lower blood sugar as a result of the insulin doing its job, resulting in a sense or feeling of needing more fuel, more energy and more calories. And as you hit that residual low blood sugar, you begin to crave more of the quick-release, simple sugars, and hence you have just initiated the sugar craving cycle. As this downward cycle continues, your pancreas continues to secrete insulin while it simultaneously reduces its production of another hormone called glucagon. Glucagon production, as it relates to improving your body composition, is very important if your fitness goal is to lose excess body fat. Glucagon is the only hormone that allows stored body fat to be released into the bloodstream to be burned by your muscles as energy. And when the pancreas has to elevate its production of insulin while reducing its supply of glucagon, you are basically locking-in your excess body fat. Therefore, too much refined sugar intake dramatically hinders the process of reducing stored body fat.

Complex carbohydrates, on the other hand – release sugars much more slowly into the body and do not result in any "sudden sugar spike" overloading the pancreas and insulin production (eventual Diabetes Mellitus) and are actually your body’s preferred source of energy. When you consume healthy complex carbs – the ones that have not been altered in a food laboratory – they are broken down into glucose molecules on a gradual basis and used as fuel, or stored in muscle and the liver as glycogen. When the body has an ample supply of glucose fuel and glycogen fuel storage, it can run efficiently. You will then have the energy to function at your best and provides the material that your body needs to REDUCE BODY FAT.

So yes there is a huge metabolic distinction between the consumption of "refined carbohydrates" and that of "complex carbohydrates", in terms of health and weight issues.
