About Pasta cooked
Pasta, a staple of Italian cuisine, is made primarily from durum wheat and water, often enriched with vitamins like folic acid for added nutritional value. Once cooked, it becomes a versatile base for countless dishes, pairing well with vegetables, proteins, and sauces. Pasta is a good source of complex carbohydrates, offering sustained energy, and contains little fat or cholesterol. It also provides some essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins. Whole-grain pasta is a healthier option, offering higher fiber content to support digestion and heart health. However, traditional pasta is calorie-dense, and excessive portions or heavy cream-based sauces can contribute to weight gain and elevated cholesterol levels. Overall, when paired with balanced ingredients, pasta can be a satisfying and nutritious meal option fitting into a healthy diet.
