I'm just starting this diet and eat a gluten free diet.Would brown rice pasta have too much insoluble fiber or does the processing make it okay? All the package says is that a serving has 2 grams total fiber. Thanks! Karen

Brown rice pasta may or may not be safe for you. It is something you will have to try.

Some brands add brown rice bran to increase the amount of insoluble fiber. Processing does not change the nature of insoluble fiber.

Also, the amount of fiber given on the label depends on the serving size. It is best to figure out the percentage of fiber in a serving. What is the name of the brand of pasta you are wondering about?

It's Trader Joe's brown rice pasta.I'll have to check but believe the only ingredients are brown rice and water.

I cannot tolerate brown rice pasta - I only use white. The DeBoles brand seems to work well for me.
