Most of its fibre is in the skin, one medium potato carries more potassium than a banana, and yellow and purple varieties hold pigments that work against cell damage. Its weak point is speed: a plain boiled potato lifts blood sugar about as fast as white bread, and fast rises in blood sugar are one of the ways food drives inflammation. Most potatoes also reach the table fried, which brings refined oil and salt along with them.<\/p>\n<p>Pasta starts a step behind the potato, because it is refined wheat, with the bran, the germ and most of the fibre taken out before the shape is pressed. It recovers some ground: durum wheat leaves it more protein than most refined grains, around 8 grams a cooked cup, and the dense dried shape releases its sugar more slowly than bread made from the same flour. Two habits cancel that out, boiling it well past al dente, which makes the starch break down much faster, and serving three or four times what a first course in Italy would be. Boil a batch of potatoes with the skins on tonight, chill them, and eat them cold tomorrow, because cooling turns part of the starch into food for your gut bacteria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Potato is less inflammatory than pasta, but only just: both sit in the middle of the inflammation scale, one point [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5860,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"iscan_food_a":"pasta","iscan_food_b":"potato","iscan_winner":""},"class_list":["post-5859","comparison","type-comparison","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pasta vs Potato: Which Is Less Inflammatory?
