abstract “Diabesity” is the term to illustrate the interdependent relationship between obesity
and diabetes. About 80% of the diabetic patients are diagnosed with obesity. Diabesity can …

Resistant starch (RS; types 1 to 5) cannot be digested in the small intestine and thus enters
the colon intact, with some types capable of being fermented by gut microbes. As a fiber …

Introduction Carbohydrates are one of the macronutrients which have the most substantial
influence on glycemic response. The cooling of rice after cooking causes retrogradation of …

The interactions of starch with lipids, proteins, and or other major food components during
food processing are inevitable. These interactions could result in the formation of V-type or …

Background Resistant starch (RS) confers many health benefits, mostly through the
microbial production of SCFAs, but foods containing appreciable RS are limited. High …

Several studies have linked increased intake of dietary fibre to improvement in the
management of body weight. Dietary fibre from resistant starch (RS) has been shown to …

Epidemiological and clinical evidence highlight the benefit of dietary fibre consumption on
body weight. This benefit is partly attributed to the interaction of dietary fibre with the gut …

We previously observed beneficial effects of native banana starch (NBS) with a high
resistant starch (RS) content on glycemic response in lean and obese participants. Here, we …
