Grits

how bad are grits for you?

I have been eating really healthy lately, but to be honest I don't know if grits are terrible or not, I know its a starch. but how does it rate as far as if i were using it as just a energy food before going and running.

I am in Iraq, so healthy foods are few and far between.

I eat regular grits in place of oats now.
They taste so much better to me. Ones I eat are regular flavor.

I think they are about like oats the they have 23g carbs and only .2g of it is sugar.
So they are good complex carbs. Note this was prepared in water only.
