Cooked
and cooled pasta and potatoes, either eaten cold or re-heated, forms
resistant starch. This type of starch results in a 50%
decrease in carbohydrate and calorie content because the body doesn’t
digest and assimilate this type of starch. Additionally, this
resistant starch is a food source for good gut microbes and decreases
yeast and toxin formation in the gut.
Even if you eat GF pasta, it will hold up just fine with the cooking and cooling and then reheating cycle.
Just remember, if you're eating white potatoes or pasta, you still need to be careful not to eat too much...it's still simple carbohydrates!
