Whole-wheat pasta

Green: Usually a good choice

Generally a good choice when whole-wheat pasta is prepared simply and eaten in a comfortable portion.

Why it received this rating

Whole-wheat pasta adds fiber and can support constipation, but the extra bulk may be uncomfortable when nausea or bloating is active.

Portion and preparation guidance

Start with about 1/2 cup cooked, pair with lean protein, and increase only as tolerated.

Symptoms or considerations

Drink enough fluid and reduce the portion if you feel overly full or gassy.

Individual tolerance varies. This rating is general educational guidance, not a statement that this food is the right choice for your personal medical needs. Follow advice from your prescriber or registered dietitian.
