" Trying to lose weight, but don&amp;#039;t want to give up your favorite pasta dish? Try a whole-wheat version, which will keep your blood-sugar level steady for hours after you eat it, preventing the spikes and crashes that leave you hungry. Plus, whole-wheat brands have more than double the fiber of white pasta -- an important fact, since research has shown that people lose more weight on high-fiber diets.  Pastas made with 100% whole wheat or other whole grains are the best choice since they&amp;#039;re so antioxidant-rich. But those that combine white flour with wheat bran or other high-fiber ingredients are also okay, as long as you&amp;#039;re getting at least 4 grams of fiber per 2 ounces of dried pasta. See the table below for some top pasta choices (your supermarket should have at least one of the brands listed):   Whole-Wheat Pasta (2 ounces) Calories Fiber (g) Ingredients   Barilla Plus Penne* 200 4 Semolina, grain, a legume flour blend (lentils, chickpeas, oats, spelt, barley, egg whites, ground flaxseed, wheat fiber), vitamins, and minerals   Bionaturae Whole Durham Wheat Penne 190 5 Organic whole durham wheat, water   DeCecco Whole Wheat Fusilli 180 7 Whole-wheat semolina, vitamins, and minerals   Dreamfields Penne Rigate ** 190 5 Enriched semolina, fiber blend (inulin, xanthan gum, pectin), sorbitol, wheat gluten, potassium chloride   Eden Foods Spelt Ziti Rigate, 100% Whole Grain 210 5 Organic spelt   *This pasta is also rich in the plant form of omega 3 fat, thanks to the added flaxseed. **The company claims that the fiber blend and the wheat gluten slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
