Can Having Pasta Increases The Sugar Level?

My blood sugar is 89 in the morning if I don t eat pasta at night but if I do a lot of pasta it can go up to 108 in the morning but after 30min drops to 100 and lower . During the day I can eat carbs and 2 hours after is around 100 should I avoid pasta at night?

Dear user, pasta is made of maida, (white flour), so it has high Glycemic index. it makes your sugars go high and comes down fast. but during day body is burning calories, so it is digested easily. but as i see you are not diabetic, so it is fine once in a while if you have pasta. regards!
