The ingredient has expressly developed to increase the production of butyrate in the large intestine, said Rajiv Khatau, Lodaat Pharma’s managing director.
The company is targeting food and beverage brands with its Potato-Daat ingredient, which contains 78% resistant starch by weight.
The ingredient can easily be formulated into a range of applications, said Khatau, including bars, powders, RTD beverages, food, capsules, and tablets.
“Butyrate is the most important short chain fatty acid (SCFA), and has been linked to promoting satiety, protecting against endothelial dysfunction, and it’s useful for blood sugar management.”
The company is working on studies specifically using the ingredient with collaborators at the University of Michigan.
Resistant starch
The term prebiotic was coined in 1995 by Prof Glenn Gibson and Marcel Roberfroid, and the definition was updated by the International Scientific Association of Probiotics and Prebiotics in 2017 to be: “A substrate that is selectively utilized by host microorganisms conferring a health benefit”.
The category was built on inulin and FOS (fructooligosaccharides), but has expanded over the years to include GOS (galactooligosaccharides), XOS (xylooligosaccharide), HMOs (human milk oligosaccharides), lactulose, some polyphenols, and resistant starch.
A resistant starch is an insoluble dietary fiber which resists digestion in the small intestine and reaches the large intestine, where it’s fermented. Resistant starches are found naturally in many uncooked/unprocessed grains, intact whole grains, underripe bananas, beans and pulses, and potatoes.
