[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend with diabetes recently told me that reheated pasta is ok for diabetics to eat. Cooking and then reheating somehow changes the composition of the starch and it gets metabolized differently. I’m not familiar with the research but she’s started to introduce this type of pasta into her diet. [/quote] Your friend is a complete idiot. [/quote] From ChatGPT when asked about the above: It's true that the glycemic index (GI) of certain foods can change when they're cooked and then cooled/reheated. The process of cooking and cooling can lead to the formation of resistant starches, which are starches that resist digestion in the small intestine and are instead fermented by bacteria in the large intestine. Resistant starches have a lower impact on blood sugar levels compared to rapidly digestible starches. This means that foods containing resistant starches can have a lower glycemic response, which may be beneficial for people with diabetes. However, it's essential to note that not all types of pasta will necessarily have this effect. The type of pasta, cooking method, and other factors can influence the formation of resistant starches.[/quote] You’re an idiot as well. [/quote]
