Carbe Diem low-carb pasta, plain

Yellow: Limit or adjust

A lower-calorie, very high-fiber wheat pasta that may work well in a smaller portion, but the fiber content can cause bloating, gas, or uncomfortable fullness for some people.

Why it received this rating

Carbe Diem pasta is low in fat and provides more protein and fiber than traditional pasta. However, one labeled serving contains 24 grams of fiber, which may be difficult to tolerate when appetite is low, digestion feels slow, or fiber intake has recently increased.

Portion and preparation guidance

Consider beginning with half of the labeled serving. Cook it fully and pair it with lean protein, tolerated vegetables, and a lighter tomato or broth-based sauce.

Symptoms or considerations

Watch for bloating, gas, cramping, constipation, diarrhea, or prolonged fullness. Drink adequate fluids. The product contains wheat and gluten. Creamy, oily, or high-fat sauces may make the overall meal harder to tolerate.
