The top 50
high-carb foods.

Carbs power most training. Endurance athletes, hard gainers, and anyone training multiple times a day benefit from a deliberate carb strategy — and that means knowing which foods deliver the most carbs per gram. The list below ranks foods by carbs per 100g. Expect to see grains, dried fruits, sweets, and starchy vegetables near the top. These are tools for performance and recovery, not foods to fear.

Timing matters more than amount

Stop guessing. Track precisely.

Carbs around training (1–2 hours pre-workout, immediately post) drive the strongest performance and recovery effects. Same total carbs spread across the rest of the day work, but the around-training window is where carb timing actually matters.

SpotWell scans your plate and logs the exact macros — protein, carbs, fat, calories — in under a second. No barcode hunting, no manual entry, no estimation errors.
