6 reason why pasta is good for your health...
One pot meal πππ
One can add meat, both fresh and processed, a wide range of vegetables and herbs, lentils, nuts and cheese to pasta. It means that a bowl of pasta is rich in carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals making it a wholesome meal.
High in fibre:
Pasta can be made a high-fibre dish by making a few additions. To make a high-fibre pasta dish, choose from a huge range of multigrain and whole wheat variety available in the market. Add chopped, mixed vegetables or their purees. You can also try your hand at stuffed pasta or cannelloni filling it with spinach and adding meat of your choice. The more veggies you add, the healthier it becomes.
Gluten-free:
Yes! You can still eat pasta when on a gluten-free diet. While the commonly available durum pasta is not free of gluten, there are several brands that make pasta out of brown rice, soya and corn. They taste just as good as the regular fare. You can buy these from a supermarket or opt to eat at a restaurant which offers a gluten-free menu.
Good for diabetics:
Whole grain pasta cooked in olive oil with vegetables or lean meat is a very healthy meal by itself. It is full of antioxidant vitamins, heart healthy fats and bodybuilding protein. This makes it ideal for people who suffer from conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes.
Protects against cancer:
Pastas are classically made with a rich tomato sauce that has been delicately spiced with herbs. This cooked and reduced tomato sauce is a rich source of an antioxidant called lycopene. It prevents damage to body cells and the DNA protecting against breast and prostate cancer. It also delays the signs of ageing. A dash of olive oil will make lycopene highly absorbable.
