Pasta is made from refined wheat flour or durum wheat semolina that contains a good amount of fiber and some protein. If you break it down further, it has healthy mineral content which includes calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. Whole-grain or whole wheat pasta contains almost twice as much fiber as compared to your regular white pasta.

If you break it down further, it has healthy mineral content which includes calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. Whole-grain or whole wheat pasta contains almost twice as much fiber as compared to your regular white pasta. Hence, whole wheat pasta will be a better choice for many as it is low in calories and carbs but higher in fiber and nutrients. To make it even healthier you can also add your choice of protein or veggies to your pasta. Starchy foods, such as pasta, can be part of a healthy diet for people with diabetes. For a healthy option, it is recommended to opt for whole wheat pasta, or bean/lentil-based pasta, which is more nutritious.

Many doctors and dietitians also recommend whole wheat pasta for better weight control and a lower risk of diseases. The difference between your regular pasta and whole wheat pasta is that traditional pasta only uses specific parts of the wheat kernel, which means that it loses key nutrients during the production process and so often nutrients and vitamins are artificially added to the product. On the other hand, whole wheat pasta uses all of the wheat kernel, which means that the nutrients remain in the pasta, along with fiber and protein
