Wholewheat pasta

[Daphne917]

@pau1200 a few years back, a study was done showing that reheated pasta didn't raise blood sugars as much as freshly cooked pasta. I've never tried it myself but you might want to give it a try, to see what happens.

On the rare occasions I have it I always cook, cool by running under a cold tap and reheat my pasta and it does seem to make a difference

Hi all,

I’ve been keeping my blood sugar under control and settled into a routine with food and all seemed to be going well until yesterday. Monday we do a spagbol with wholewheat pasta and my sugars rise a bit but drop to 7 after 2 hours. Today though it was up to 13 2 hours after and just got up to visit the loo and checked it and it’s still up at 11 (8hrs). For months I haven’t had reading like this, could it be I can no longer tolerate the pasta? Medication wise I’m on sukkarto 1000mg.

I’ve started using courgetti - I’ve got a spiraliser - but I think you’re u can buy it in Tesco. Once it’s covered in nice home made tomato sauce it’s just like pasta without the carbs - even my husband likes it!

From time to time Lidl have sets of three plastic cones with inbuilt sharp edge, coarse and fine 'getti and spirals in each set - and very cheap.
