Effects of Hi-maize Resistant Starch on Insulin Sensitivity

April 20, 2016 updated by: Ingredion Incorporated

A Randomized, Controlled, Double-blind Crossover Study to Assess the Effects of a Dietary Fiber Ingredient, at Two Doses, on Insulin Sensitivity

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a dietary fiber, resistant starch, on insulin sensitivity. Low insulin sensitivity is a risk factor for some diseases including type 2 diabetes and heart disease. This study will show if consuming resistant starch can help improve insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese people.
