It is possible that you have a wheat sensitivity. For years I had everything from general weakness to dizzyness and the doctors assumed it could be stress related - creating anxiety like symptoms because nothing would ever show up in hematology, ekg, or otherwise. I accepted this possibility for a while but I started to notice the symptoms were at their worst within a couple of hours after eating - and then I narrowed it down to wheat. I am not celiac, at least I caught it in time before that issue ever developed. I went on and off wheat several times over the years and have noticed something you might take note of - it takes a hell of a longtime for your body to get back to normal - up to 6 months to 1 year. So if you don't feel better after being off wheat for a couple of weeks - it could still be an issue. You have to eliminate it for a much longer period to rule it out. Wheat withdrawal presents similar effects in the body as opiate withdrawal - headaches and a general feeling of being unwell. Try it for the long term and see how you feel (it is tough!!). Wheat is in everything. If you eat a lot of processed / fast foods then you could be in for a rude awakening.

One last note - after being off wheat for 8 months and finally feeling back to normal, stupidly I ate 2 pieces of Pizza one night (I was out of town and starving for a snack) Commercial pizza uses high gluten flour (the specific protein I am sensitive to in wheat) and after that night I had severe dizzy spells for 3 weeks! It started within 2 hours of eating the pizza. Well I learned my lesson.

Of course, this may not be your issue at all but it is becoming increasingly more common in people! Other issues include hyperglycemia / hypoglycemia, and insulin resistance. Check your blood sugar regularly before and after eating to rule other issues out.

Best of luck

Its because when you eat some much all of your energy is focused on your stomach which then makes you weak and a little dizzy and I'm sure after 10 minutes or so it passes which is what happens to me when I eat to much.

incorrect. You are an idiot and you can't spell. It has absolutely nothing to do with how much is consumed. The dizziness lasts for HOURS after a have a small portion of pasta. It is somehow related to blood sugar.

What is the difference between whole wheat pasta and ordinary pasta?

They can be the same type of wheat flower actually. The only difference is pasta has an extremely low level of hydration, which produces the stiff dough which when dried will form hard pasta. It's a similar concept to bagels vs sandwich bread. Bagels have a lower hydration level which is why they are so dense. It's all the same flower being used though.
