Factors influencing starch digestibility

Starch that avoids digestion by amylases in the small intestine and passes to the large bowel for fermentation is defined as resistant starch (RS). RS appears to be desirable in human health, as it has functional properties similar to fermentable dietary fibers. The amount of RS is related to the...
