No Guilt Pasta




Yes, I love pasta. Yes, I don’t eat much of it because I know how the starchy pasta turns to sugar that turns to belly fat. Just thinking about a HUGE bowl of pasta, with marinara sauce, three thick meatballs, and a smidgen of fresh grated parmesan cheese, makes me so hungry that I’m willing to settle on the chance for a little belly fat.

What if you could get the pasta without the belly fat guilt? Well, there may be a solution from Japan called the shirataki noodle.

Because of the plant from which they are made, shirataki noodles are particularly high in fiber and low in carbohydrates. And new research suggests these Asian noodles may even help with weight, cholesterol, and blood sugar control

So, tell me more….

Results from 14 different studies revealed key benefits of a glucomannan-enhanced diet, like slower digestion, increased feelings of fullness, and less absorption of cholesterol- and glucose-spiking foods.

I’m thinking these noodles may not be a substitute for linguine, then again, they could inspire new creations within the Wide-Body kitchen as well as yours.
