Pasta info 🤓

When pasta is cooked and then cooled for 24 hours, its starch structure changes. Some of the digestible starch becomes resistant starch, which the body processes more slowly. This not only helps reduce blood sugar spikes but also feeds good gut bacteria, working as a natural prebiotic.

Reheating the cooled pasta actually amplifies the effect. Studies suggest this simple trick—cook, cool, and reheat—can cut the glycemic impact of pasta by up to 50%. It’s a small shift in meal prep with big benefits for blood sugar control and gut health. 🍝🔬

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
