Hi all! Welcome to Day 2 of How to Start Eating Healthy. Today's tip is all about PASTA. To start try swapping whole wheat pasta for white pasta.

At first, this might seem like a tough one, but honestly you will be SO happy you swapped your white pasta for whole wheat. Why? Because when we eat refined flour it generally spikes our glucose (read: blood sugar) levels. That is why after eating a big plate of pasta you might feel tired and ready to take a nap. Guess what, if you substitute whole wheat pasta for white pasta you will largely avoid that tired, bloated, yuck feeling! There's more to the story on pasta types and your gut health.

Trying to figure out how to start eating healthy? Today is day 1 of a 15 day series on !

1. How to Start Eating Healthy? Say No to cream sauce.
Cream sauce is based on cream. That might be a duh moment for most of you, but cream is based on dairy and dairy is not as good for you as the healthy fats you get when you eat extra virgin olive oil or a healthy, homemade pasta sauce. Our bodies need healthy fat and by skipping the cream sauce you’re not just saying no to saturated fats that are often present in cream sauces, you’re saying YES to healthy fatty acids that support your brain function and have been shown to decrease risk for alzheimers (see Sherzai MD The Brain Docs penultimate book) and that’s a good thing!

Looking for a healthy pasta sauce without the cream? Check out an absolutely delicious recipe for sauce free pasta at Kait's Cupboard!
