Health Effects of Dietary Fermentable Fiber (Resistant Starch)
Resistant starch (RS) reaches the large intestine for fermentation and is considered a prebiotic. We wanted to determine if we could reduce fermentation for future mechanistic studies and how there is improved insulin sensitivity in human studies with or without increased incretin hormone …

Processing and genetic effects on resistant starch in corn flakes
… the effects of processing and genetics on resistant starch content in corn flakes. Cooking (15 psig/121°C, 50 min), drying (100°C, 30 min), tempering (room temperature, 30 min) and toasting (200°C, 60 s) resulted in flakes produced in laboratory that had similar color parameters (L, a and b …

The impact of physical activity and resistant starch on gut fermentation
Purpose: Physical activity (PA) and resistant starch (RS) beneficially affect metabolic health. However, their combined effects on gut health are poorly understood. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the combined effects of PA and RS via breath hydrogen production and blood glucose …

Dietary resistant starch improved maternal glycemic control in Goto-Kakizaki rat
… Our previous work has shown that inclusion of resistant starch in the diet decreases body fat accumulation in rodents, increases GLP-1 at both the gene expression level and plasma levels, and improves glucose tolerance in STZ-induced diabetic mice. However, studies concerning dietary resistant …

Preparation, characterization, and evaluation of sorghum flour with increased resistant starch content
… flour is a good source of fiber in the form of resistant starch. The objectives of this research were to develop an effective process to increase resistant starch content of sorghum flour and investigate the effects of sorghum protein matrix on starch digestibility. Samples of white sorghum …

Effect of resistant starch consumption on body weight and blood lipid profiles
… body weight. In this study, we hypothesized that resistant starch prepared from high amylose corn (HAM-RS2), would improve plasma lipid profile, and decrease body weight in overweight/obese individuals. In a randomized, double blind study we have examined the effects of consuming resistant starch …

Fermentation of resistant starch: implications for colonic health in the monogastric animal.
Retrograded starches are commonly found in foods due to the production and/or processing conditions they have received prior to consumption. These resistant starches escape digestion in the small intestine and are fermented in the colon by the microflora present, to produce gases and SCFA in …

The Effects of Resistant Starch Intake in African-American Americans at Increased Risk for Type 2 Diabetes
… elevated rates of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Resistant starch is a promising food ingredient that has the potential to reduce the risk factors involved in the development of type 2 DM. To date, there is a dearth of published research studies on the effect of resistant starch on …

Intakes of Carbohydrates and Resistant Starch Food Sources Among Regular Exercisers in Blacksburg, VA and San Jose, Costa Rica
… the small intestine. The slow digestibility of resistant starch containing foods contributes to the slow and sustained release of glucose into the bloodstream, minimizing occurrence of hyperinsulinemia-induced suppression of lipolysis. The objectives of this study were to determine the …

Soluble fiber and resistant starch components in some Indian and Canadian wheat varieties and in a wheat-soy product - Chapati
This study aimed to quantify resistant starch (RS) beta-glucans (BG) and fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) in Indian and Canadian wheat varieties and in chapaties made from these; and to assess the effects of soy flour on the levels of these components and its effects on the sensory and functional …

Physicochemical and Sensory Properties of Resistant Starch-Based Cereal Products and Effects on Glycemic and Oxidative Stress Responses in Hispanic Women
… and/or OS through dietary consumption of resistant starch (RS) may be one approach to help modulate glucose and insulin responses. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to evaluate the physicochemical and sensory properties of cereal food products supplemented with RS. 2) to compare …

Factors Affecting Starch Conversion to Ethanol in Dry Grind Corn Process
Factors affecting corn starch conversion to ethanol were evaluated to investigate the lack of correlation between ethanol concentration and corn starch content in dry grind corn process. Effect of amylose:amylopectin ratios and resistant starch in corn starch on ethanol concentration was evaluated …

Effects of prebiotic fibre diets on rat mucosal intestinal and systemic immunity and in vitro mechanistic analysis of anti-inflammatory effects of lactobacillus strains on rat and human intestinal epithelial cells
… and IL-4 levels in the ileum in comparison to resistant starch-fed rats. Lastly, resistant starch exerted effects in the mesenteric lymph node, where changes in active TGF-β were observed in rats in comparison to AIN-93G-fed rats. Oat bran, wheat bran and resistant starch had no effects on …

Fundamental studies of sourdoughs fermented with Weissella cibaria and Lactobacillus plantarum: influence on baking characteristics, sensory profiles and in vitro starch digestibility of gluten-free breads
… is of great (Berti et al. 2004). The in vitro starch digestibility of gluten-free breads with and without sourdough addition was analysed to predict the GI (pGI). Sourdough can decrease starch hydrolysis in vitro, due to formation of resistant starch and organic acids. Predicted GI of …

LARGE-SCALE METAGENOMIC ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY HUMAN GUT MICROBIOME BIOMARKERS OF CARDIOMETABOLIC HEALTH
… on 70 individuals, how supplementation with resistant starch (RS), a type of dietary fiber, influences the gut microbiome and host lipid metabolism. We integrated shotgun metagenomics and metabolomics from stool samples to assess the effects of two RS types, RS2 and RS4. Each RS promoted …

Effect of Functional Starch in Brown Rice and Grain Sorghum on Plasma Glucose and Insulin Responses in Humans
… carbohydrates to control blood glucose levels. Starch is a principle carbohydrate, which influences blood glucose levels, and measuring starch digestibility fractions can help predict the glucose response in the body. The objectives of this study were to investigate the functional starch content …
