Benefits
Tomato and Basil Spaghetti are one of typical plates of traditional Italian cuisine and it is known and appreciated all around the World. Much loved by children, easy and quick to prepare, ideal for an “unplanned” lunch with friends and family members, “regenerating” if we savor them after an hour of physical activity. Any excuse is valid for a good plate of spaghetti with tomato and basil. But beyond the pleasure we feel from their unmistakable flavor there are 4 excellent reasons to often put them on our tables.
  1. Durum wheat spaghetti, unlike other pasta shapes, has a lower glycemic impact, that is they raise blood sugar more slowly. If we drain them just in time, we further reduce the glycemic impact.
  2. Tomato is rich in lycopene, a plant pigment that belongs to the numerous carotenoid family and gives these vegetables their color. The human body cannot produce lycopene and therefore it can only be ingested through food.
  3. Basil, an integral part of our recipe. In ancient times it was known as a “food worthy of the King’s house” for its pleasant flavor and it precious virus, including its antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, stimulating, useful in case of lack of appetite, carminative and diuretic properties.
  4. The generous quantities of Extra Virgin Olive Oil in the sauce, whose fats are essential for the absorption of lycopene.
