Detailed Product Description

  Product Description

·  NWBMST-570 is the modified starch which has been manufactured by wheat starch, called Resistant Starch, with equal to 50--70% dietary fiber by AOAC testing. Resistant Starch can not be digested or absorbed in small intestine of human body, with only 2.5--2.8 Kcal/g, and 50--70% dietary fiber can not produce any calorie. It can be fermented and decomposed in the large intestine of human body, boosting the excretion of blood sugar and cholesterol from human blood, absorbing the toxic substance of food, reducing the toxin from bacteria in the intestinal canal.
