Why is wheat pasta healither than white pasta?

Question

I heard that wheat pasta is healthier than traditional white pasta, why is that?

Answer 1

Mostly it's the fibre.  Another thing white pasta, white rice and white bread can make your blood sugar spike and then crash.  Whole wheat pasta and bread as well as brown rice will not make it spike.   Whole wheat is a complex carb. Where as the white is a simple carb.  Hope this helps.  Cheers!
