What Are the Functions of Resistant Dextrin As Anti-sugar?

1. Resistant dextrin can delay aging and lighten one's skin

Resistant dextrin can delay and inhibit the absorption and digestion of carbohydrates in the small intestine, because resistant dextrin is water-soluble, it can form a gel, and prevent the diffusion and absorption of carbohydrates in the intestine. Resistant dextrin can also change the secretion of digestive tract hormones, inhibit the absorption of carbohydrates, and achieve the purpose of lowering blood sugar.

Part of the sugar is digested in the human body, and the undigested part will combine with the protein to form AGES substances, which will cause the protein to undergo a glycation reaction, causing the cells to dry out and discolor, so that the human body shows aging, pigmentation, and dullness. Therefore, resistant dextrin can reduce sugar intake, block the combination of sugar and protein, and achieve anti-aging and brightening effects.

2. Resistant dextrin can control blood sugar and blood insulin response

Ingestion of resistant dextrin can cause hypoglycemia (glucose response = 25) and blood insulin response (insulin response = 13). So as a slow-releasing carbohydrate, it can partially or completely replace other carbohydrates such as sugars and starches.

For example, when a syrup made from resistant dextrin fiber is used in a juice concentrate and consumed after dilution, the glucose response is only 10% that of an equivalent sugar product.
