The CarbLover’s Diet mentioned eating resistant starch carbs. How can it benefit you?

The bulk of our diet is carbohydrates, composed of starch. Therefore, starch is glucose found in grains, potatoes, and other foods.,

Nevertheless, starch does not always get digested. Some of it passes unchanged through the digestive tract. It becomes resistant to digestion.

This sort of starch is called resistant starch, and it works similarly to soluble fibre.

Human studies have demonstrated that resistant starch has many health benefits, including improved insulin sensitivity, reduced blood sugar levels, reduced appetite, and various advantages for digestion.

Resistant starch comes in four different forms. Food preparation has a significant effect on the amount of resistant starch that becomes a part of the final product.

Foods with type 1 are grain, seeds, and legumes and are resistant to digestion due to their fibrous walls. Type 2 are starchy foods, like raw potatoes and green bananas.
In type 3, potatoes and rice become resistant to starches when cooked and cooled. The cooling process turns some digestible starches into resistant starches. In type 4, resistant starches are formed by a chemical process.

A large part of the reason resistant starch improves your health is that it feeds friendly bacteria in your digestive system (intestine) and aids in creating short-chain fatty acids like butyrate.
