Nice! 100% whole grain
Great job! Whole grains are a great source of fiber and other nutrients. Fiber is one of the most important things we need in our diet. Here is what fiber does for you:- Fiber helps your body process food from one end to the other. - Fiber plays an important role in mediating the blood sugar spikes from carbohydrate-laden food.Whole grains are not the only way to get fiber, BUT by choosing them instead of processed grains you've made a smart choice.

Contains glycerides
Mono and diglycerides are commonly used in processed foods to maintain stability in liquid products and "improve" quality in baked goods. These glycerides could be created using both hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils or animal fats. In theory, this may transfer a small amount of trans fats into the product. The glycerides are synthesized into phosphates by reacting with phosphorus pentoxide, a potential environmental hazard. But that's only part of the problem ... The presence of mono and diglycerides should discourage you from buying a product for more than just these reasons: their inclusion in a product indicates that it is industrially processed. Choose products without mono and diglycerides not only for health reasons, but because you are getting a better quality food item overall.

Choose healthy pasta - 5 quick tips
Want to choose healthy pasta? Here are 5 quick tips: 1. Choose whole grain pasta. One serving will have 3.5 grams of fiber while regular pasta has 2 grams. 2. Cook it al dente (firm) - the firmer the pasta, the lower the glycemic index. Low glycemic index means longer lasting energy and easier digestion. 3. If you're using store-bought sauce, add some extra veggies. Finely chopped broccoli, spinach leaves, shredded carrots, or cauliflower blend well in to any flavored sauce. Any frozen mix would do well too. 4. Add some nutrition with beans. Add them to your sauce. Use mung beans or add some texture with Cannellini (white beans) or kidney beans. Be sure they're cooked first though. 5. Cooking for gluten free folks? Try pasta made from rice or other grains. But don't forget to check for fiber in these too! Pasta should have fiber no matter what it's made of.
