In a recent paper, author, <strong>Yanni Papanikolaou<\/strong> of <em>Nutritional Strategies Inc<\/em>, Paris, ON, Canada evaluated the relationship between pasta consumption and diet quality in both children and adults.<br \/>\nThe pasta was wheat-based and egg-free, and the comparison was with people who did not consume pasta.<\/p>\n<p>The study found that pasta consumption was significantly associated with better diet quality than subjects who did not consume pasta.<br \/>\nParticularly in pasta consumers there was a reduction in intake of added sugars and saturated fat, while there were no differences in levels of sodium, potassium, calcium, and vitamins A and D.<br \/>\nIt is also interesting to note that in women, aged 19 to 50 years, there was a reduction in body mass index, waist circumference and body weight, compared with those who did not consume pasta.<\/p>\n<p>Pasta consumption was found to be associated with better diet quality and higher intakes of several nutrients, including folate, iron, magnesium, and dietary fiber.<br \/>\nPasta consumers also had lower daily intake of saturated fat and added sugars than non-pasta consumers, with no differences in total daily calories and sodium intake.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the study author suggests that pasta should be consistently included in diets dedicated to both children and adults in order to increase its nutritional quality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More and more research validates the role of pasta within a balanced diet for both children and adults.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8779,"featured_media":24882,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":"","_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"","_twitter_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type":"","_pinterest_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"","_medium_share_type":"","_threads_share_type":"","_selected_social_profile":[]},"categories":[1734,1730,1741],"tags":[],"corpo":[1760],"table_tags":[],"class_list":["post-38318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-flash-news-en","category-food-and-nutrition","category-general-medicine","corpo-digestive-system","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38318"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8779"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38318"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38318\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40338,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38318\/revisions\/40338"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24882"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38318"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38318"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38318"},{"taxonomy":"corpo","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corpo?post=38318"},{"taxonomy":"table_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myspecialdoctor.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/table_tags?post=38318"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
