Why Pasta Feels Different in Italy 🍝🇮🇹
Ever noticed how eating pasta and bread in Europe makes you feel light and energized, but eating the same foods in the U.S. leaves you bloated, tired, and moody? 😴 Here’s why:
🔬 In 1993, the chemical industry convinced the government to spray all grains with folic acid—a man-made synthetic that doesn’t exist in nature.
🥖 All flour, bread, pasta, and cereal in the U.S. is “enriched” (aka sprayed with folic acid).
⚠️ Folic acid overload messes with your metabolism and energy levels—turning what should be nourishing into something that drains you.
💡 Solution? Choose organic, non-enriched versions of grains, rice, and pasta! Your body will thank you.

Rubbish the Italian imported pasta you can buy in basically any store makes you feel bloated and tired as well
BAN ALL GMO 'S
BAN ALL CHEM TRAILS. BAN ALL LAB GROWN FOOD.

So by buying imported pasta from Italy do we also benefit?
I went to France for 2 weeks, and I ate like a PIG! I would have a box of pastries every night, and I didn't gain a pound.
I am 100 in agreement!!
What is the folic acid for?
They claim pregnant women need folic acid.
Or how about u stop spraying them
Organic only folks… everything else is poison
Y'all are full ofshit, it's all bad, just eat meat 🍖
What the heck man.. Folate is a natural occurring substance Lettuce, Spinach, Beans.. all have it
This is why you should make your own pasta and bread.
Follic acid is found in insects….just saying
Can we get fortified free flour, pasta and bread in the usa?
They give pregnant women vitamins with folic acid and telling us we need folic acid for a healthy pregnancy
I am European and pasta is shit anyways! Maybe not as shit like in the US but it’s shit and unhealthy anyway🤷🏻♂️ Best is to avoid them totally!
BS 😂 true you won't feel horrible after but you'll still gain weight
