What's so special about that study? They burned their glycogen stores with that exercise, and when they eat pasta it restored their glycogen. Of course it wouldn't be stored as fat. People have been doing this for years, its called carb loading/refeeding. Look up the CKD diet, for example.
I don't know who started to spread the bullshit that pasta makes you fat. We italian eat a lot of pasta and we are not obese. Of course it depends of what sauce you use (we never use ketchup or "Alfredo sauce", which is not Italian at all).
This is great news. But do remember this one thing: You MUST be exercising before you can eat your pasta. This is NOT a license to eat as much pasta as you want. Without exercise, you ARE going to store pasta as fat. That's the take home message from this research.
@WOB1010 You're right, the carbs in pasta are not magically turned into fat. They are enzymatically turned into fat.
He's probably getting hist "facts" from a textbook or something...

This is confusing the Fat in Pasta with the carbohydrates in pasta.
(He probably got his "Facts" from someone on YouTube) Carbohydrates can not magicaly change into fat ...the Fat in the Pasta becomes fat.
