Dietitian Samantha Peterson stated that cooled pasta may be more beneficial than freshly cooked pasta.
Medianews.az reports that, according to her, resistant starch forms in cold pasta.
This substance acts as a prebiotic fiber in the intestine, nourishing beneficial bacteria, stabilizing blood sugar levels, and improving appetite and metabolism.
The specialist added that some studies show that resistant starch increases insulin sensitivity, supporting metabolic health.
