Research Links Pasta Consumption To Both Lower Body Mass And Waist-To-Hip Ratio.

reports that “a new survey of more than 23,000 people...has linked pasta consumption to both lower body mass and waist-to-hip ratio.” The research “said pasta consumption is associated with better weight management in part because it often occurs as part of a healthy Mediterranean diet.” However, investigators “also found that the correlation between pasta intake and lower obesity rates occurred independently of overall diet.” The findings were published in Nutrition and Diabetes. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/07/04/eating-pasta-can-help-you-lose-weight--study/
