Fish Could Cut the Fat

There is a recent study that adding fish to pasta can make the pasta less fattening. When British scientists topped fusilli with tuna, they discovered that the glycemic index of the dish was cut in half. High-glycemic foods such as pasta, bread and potatoes can raise our blood-sugar levels and signal our body to store fat. Researchers discovered that protein in tuna helps slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream. They supposed that turkey, beef, pork and chicken should have a similar effect.
