If I may suggest, Try using different brands of pasta. and also typologies. Barilla is the most famous but also the worst. I suggest you ancient wheat pasta, spelled, kamut, or legumes, almonds etc. choose something organic and healthier as well as good. "Felicetti" is a good brand, it is produced in northern Italy, in Trentino. "Alce Nero" is another organic brand, "Girolomoni" is yet another. and there is others too. you can find them in Italy in organic shops but also in the organic section of some supermarkets, or on the internet. On the internet you can buy and have it throughout Europe. And even if you love traditional pasta, still change brands and don't choose Barilla :)
