The term secondary market is also used to refer to the market for any used goods or assets, or an alternative use for an existing product or asset where the customer base is the second market (for example, corn has been traditionally used primarily for food production and feedstock, but a second or third market has developed for use in ethanol production).
What you eat with your carbohydrates matters, too. Protein and fat slow the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream, which helps prevent [insulin] spikes and drops, says Jamieson-Petonic.
Carbohydrates and the Brain. The main function of carbohydrates in your diet is to provide energy and fuel to your body, especially your brain. Carbohydrates break down into glucose in your body, which is then used as energy. Complex carbohydrates are carbs that break down more slowly in your system, providing a more gradual energy source than simple carbohydrates, which can cause spikes to your blood sugar and energy levels.
