Answer 2

D. three fried eggs and three strips of bacon

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex carbohydrates are digested and absorbed slowly, causing a small and gradual increase in blood glucose. With that, the feeling of satiety lasts longer, and as a consequence, collaborates in the weight loss process. In this group, foods also have a higher fiber content, speed up metabolism and control the glycemic index.

An example of a source of complex carbohydrates is the egg, so we can say that a meal consisting of three fried eggs and three strips of bacon, contains large proportions of complex carbohydrates.
