What is "cont corn?" Corn has a high carboydrate content, becasue it is a starch. Most people eat it as a vegetable, which it is in part, but it is a carb.
If you eat fresh corn, then you are eating a high fiber food that has a moderate level of carbs and low fat.
However, corn starch, corn syrup, corn chips, and any other form of process corn product is a high-glycemic index carbohydrate, which means it is transformed into excess body fat, which is stored in the breasts, butt, upper legs, thighs, and abdomen.
Corn syrup is particularly insidious, as it is a refined sugar that is found in many processed foods. You need to read nutrition panels carefully: if it says corn syrup, then buyer beware. Corn syrup is the number one culprit in processed foods responsible for obesity and diabetes.
Eating fresh corn on the cob is healthy and will fill you up since it is so high in fiber, as long as you don't douse it with butter.
Otherwise, watch it with those processed corn products.
