With the growing consumer focus on adopting healthy lifestyle, the consumption of complex carbohydrates including resistant starches to feed healthy gut bacteria will increase. This carbohydrate, with easy digestibility and nutrient-rich properties, can help improve insulin sensitivity, enabling the body to handle high blood sugar and lower diabetes risks. In the U.S., type 2 diabetes has become a common health condition, affecting 23% of people aged over 60 years.

The intake of higher levels of resistance starch dietary fibers is, however, associated with bloating, allergic reactions, and other side effects, limiting product usage to some extent. Despite these negative impacts, the prevalence of major lifestyle diseases including obesity has influenced consumers to opt for nutritional food items that lower cholesterol levels and improve gut health. Furthermore, the product’s vast application scope in convenience foods, sugar confectioneries, and baked goods will create lucrative opportunities for resistant starch market growth.
