I generally could give a shit about health news but found this interesting.
Read a study on the body's calorie uptake from pasta.
Fresh cooked, it's quite high.
But if you leave it to cool the starches change form into a harder to digest carb. About 30% less uptake.
Then even better, if you reheat it the starches take a form more similar to fibre and the uptake goes down to 50%!
So, leftovers are where it;s at people.
