Re-evaluation of the mechanisms of dietary fibre and implications for macronutrient bioaccessibility, digestion and postprandial metabolism
The positive effects of dietary fibre on health are now widely recognised; however, our
understanding of the mechanisms involved in producing such benefits remains unclear …

Distribution of short to medium amylose chains are major controllers of in vitro digestion of retrograded rice starch
B Gong, L Cheng, RG Gilbert, C Li - Food Hydrocolloids, 2019 - Elsevier
In many cultures, rice is let to cool for a while after cooking before being consumed, which
results in some retrogradation of the starch. The in vitro digestibility of 16 cooked rice …

Intactness of cell wall structure controls the in vitro digestion of starch in legumes
Increasing the level of starch that is not digested by the end of the small intestine and
therefore enters the colon ('resistant starch') is a major opportunity for improving the …
