The exceptional nutritional profile of edamame pasta is one of the primary factors contributing to its increasing popularity. These pasta alternatives are rich in essential nutrients, making them a wholesome choice for those seeking a well-rounded diet. Here are some notable health benefits of edamame pasta:
As the noodles are primarily water, they won’t impact blood sugars and will work in most diets trying to eliminate gluten, dairy, and eggs. But if a person consumes edamame frequently and in large amounts, there is no recovery period. This leads to an increase in both the number of pancreatic cells (hyperplasia) and the size of those cells (hypertrophy). Combine that with frequent drinking of soya milkor foods containing soy protein isolate,and you’ve really got problems! Direct evidence that isoflavones genistein and daidzein suppress the pituitary-thyroid axis. This change occurs in only 3 three weeks in middle-aged rats fed 10 mg soy isoflavones per kilo. This compares with rats eating regular rat chow.

Eating a couple of roasted soybeans isn’t going to affect your hormones and make you turn into the blue berry kid from Willy Wonka. The fact that some of ya’ll eat more calories than a 6 month old heffer and then clutch your pearls over eating a handful a spoonful of tofu is what’s the problem with our vision of health in this society.
Edamame beans are immature soybeans that are harvested before they ripen. They are available shelled, in their pod, fresh or frozen. If steamed or microwaved, the salt is added after cooking with the soft green beans removed from the pods.Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. It often indicates a user profile. I usually only eat half a serving (1 oz. dry low-carb pasta) since I find this to be an appropriate amount for main meals, and I have no gastric issues when eating low-carb pasta. Kaayla Daniel PhD, The Naughty Nutritionist writes in her article What’s Edamame?

Verify the ingredient list to ensure that the main component of the edamame pasta is derived from edamame beans. Some brands may mix edamame with other ingredients like rice flour or cornstarch, so make sure that the primary ingredient is edamame. Quality Edamame spaghetti is an alternative pasta made from edamame beans, which are soy-based. The beans are ground into a fine flour, which is then used to make the pasta instead of the traditional semolina white flour used for regular pasta. Astudy of GMOs reported in the June 2013 issue of the peer-reviewed Journal of Organic Systemsinvolved research conducted over 22.7 weeks using 168 newly weaned pigs in a commercial U.S. piggery. One group of 84 pigs ate a diet that incorporated genetically modified (GMO) soy and corn, and the other group of 84 pigs ate an equivalent non-GMO diet. The pigs that ate genetically modified soy and corn had a higher rate of severe stomach inflammation…32% of GMO-fed pigs compared to 12% of non-GMO-fed pigs. The inflammation was worse in GMO-fed males compared to nonGMO fed males by a factor of 4.0. GMO-fed females compared to non-GMO-fed females by a factor of 2.2. (1) With regard to the green bean’s effect on digestion, the protease inhibitors present in high amounts in edamame suppress some of the key enzymes that help digest protein. Some days though, I don’t want a carb-heavy dinner (usually because I’ve had a carb-heavy day up till then😅) but still need something satiating and nourishing. A few months ago I discovered edamame spaghetti at Costco and I’m hooked! It’s delicious paired with Asian flavors and is much chewier and not dense and mushy like other bean-based pastas.

But are edamame beans Keto?
