From symbol of the Mediterranean diet to fuel for athletes, to a remedy for the gut and mood: here’s why it’s not just a pleasure for the palate, but an ally for health
Fifteen years after the first dossier, the scientific community returns to focus on pasta with a new «international Pasta Consensus Statement», the result of the joint work of the international Pasta Organisation (IPO) and Oldways, the American foundation that has been leading the scientific front of the Mediterranean Diet for decades. The document is signed by an international panel of nutritionists, epidemiologists, university and clinical researchers, the same ones who drafted the previous Statements in 2010 and 2015, now updated with more robust data and a broader perspective. The evidence supporting pasta increases from 12 to 19, redesigning its role: not only an identity food, but a pillar of public health, sustainability and daily well-being.
Between nutrients, glycaemia and heart: the scientific basis
Pasta naturally favors the virtuous combinations of the Mediterranean diet (reason number 1) and improves the overall intake of fiber, folate, iron, magnesium and potassium (2).The structure of the starch, especially when cooked al dente, «ensures a medium-low glycemic index (3)». This means that «glucose is released into the blood more gradually than other refined carbohydrates, avoiding sharp spikes in blood sugar and promoting a more stable insulin response». This characteristic translates into a «better glycemic control even in people with type 2 diabetes (4), as long as pasta is included in a balanced meal». Longitudinal studies show «a reduced risk of developing diabetes (5) and a protective effect on the cardiovascular system (6), with a lower incidence of heart attack and stroke». On the metabolic front, «pasta helps manage weight (7): the slower digestion of complex carbohydrates contributes to prolonged satiety, which stabilizes appetite and reduces the likelihood of caloric excesses in the following hours».
intestine, childhood, pregnancy: the less intuitive benefits
For the little ones – the study further highlights – pasta is a facilitator of good habits (8): it introduces constant energy and brings closer to vegetables and legumes. In pregnancy it guarantees complex carbohydrates with a gradual release (9), useful to support the energy requirement without glycemic fluctuations.
On the intestinal front, another central aspect emerges: a portion of the starch contained in pasta, especially if cooked

Men’s health, particularly prostate care, remains a sensitive topic for many, leading to alarmingly low rates of preventative screenings. Despite advances in treatment options, experts emphasize that prevention is key. Onyl 30% of men follow adequate preventative measures, according to Italy’s Ministry of Health.
“this is the most current and critical issue,” says Francesco Greco, Professor of Urology at the University of Vienna and Director of the Centro Salute Uomo in Bergamo. “Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, but too few are taking steps to protect themselves.”
“Women are much more prepared for prevention as they become familiar with their bodies from a young age, frequently enough through better communication with their mothers,” Greco explains. “Men don’t talk about it with their fathers, who themselves rarely practice prevention.”
The common advice to begin screenings at age 50 is too late. Preventative care should begin at 18, mirroring recommendations for women.This early start addresses not only potential cancers, like testicular cancer, but also sexually transmitted infections and fertility concerns. varicocele, a common diagnosis, can impact fertility if left untreated. A lack of comprehensive sex education contributes to the problem, with deficiencies in both schools and families.

The emphasis on red meat and saturated fats may come from the primary intention of blocking processed foods in favor of raw materials, without distinction of origin. This is why cereals are at the bottom of the list.
The Trump governance presents the new food pyramid: an apparent reversal. The comparison
New dietary guidelines from the Trump administration that overturn the food pyramid, highlighting as foods to be consumed every day all protein sources including red meats, aged cheeses and whole milk and relegating cereals and their derivatives to a lower consumption.
The Guidelines will be valid until 2030 and will lay the foundations for building the menus served in schools, hospitals, prisons, military bases and through federal assistance programs.
The upheaval is not as drastic as it seems, however, the recommendations
Via libera allora alla carne rossa?
«Sappiamo che la carne rossa può rientrare in una dieta sana ma non quotidianamente, bensì in porzioni moderate, preferendo tagli magri e metodi di cottura non aggressivi. Tutto ciò non viene evidenziato da tali linee guida e a ciò possiamo dare almeno due chiavi di lettura diverse: la prima, quella da nutrizionista, è che le raccomandazioni devono essere culturalmente accettabili altrimenti vengono ignorate. Enfatizzare la scelta di pesce e legumi come fonti proteiche da favorire poteva rischiare di suscitare repulsione in Stati in cui la carne è consumata quotidianamente più volte al giorno per tradizione e in cui l’obiettivo deve essere quello di cominciare a far “digerire” il messaggio che le fonti proteiche sono tante e che bisogna variare. Un’altra interpretazione è che l’industria della carne negli Stati Uniti è una delle lobby più potenti e che non dare indicazioni precise sulle frequenze sia stato fatto proprio per non penalizzarla».
E riguardo alle porzioni, le proteine sono enfatizzate nella parte che prevede un consumo quotidiano consistente: non se ne mangiano già troppe?
«In generale per i sistemi di sorveglianza nutrizionale e sanitaria degli Stati Uniti (NHANES) il problema principale è l’eccesso calorico complessivo e la qualità nutrizionale scarsa degli alimenti, e non un eccesso di proteine. In una popolazione il cui dilagano obesità, sindrome metabolica e diabete di tipo 2, incoraggiare a bilanciare i vari pasti con una giusta quota di proteine e grassipuò aiutare a mitigare eventuali picchi glicemici dovuti a un’alimentazione più improntata verso uneccesso di carboidrati, che insieme ai grassi trans sono caratteristici dei cibi più a buon mercato».
Ha stupito anche la raccomandazione verso i latticini, che include il latte intero…
«Stesso discorso: in Usa spesso
and they were lukewarm on alcohol…
«They were very generic and only write about limiting it as much as possible, omitting the quantities associated with the low risk of previous guidelines. They also recommend total abstinence for pregnant women and other categories, but do not mention minors. In the summarized guideline paragraphs dedicated to young people, ther are recommendations for caution regarding sugary drinks, caffeinated beverages, and energy drinks, but the importance of avoiding alcohol is not emphasized, assuming that since it is prohibited by law under 21, it does not need to be reiterated».
