PaleoFiber® RS contains two forms of resistant starch (RS) type II: organic green banana flour and organic potato starch powder. RS is a type of starch that is resistant to digestion, as enzymes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are inactive against it. Once RS reaches the large intestine, it is fermented into short-chain fatty acids, which are used as fuel for both beneficial microbes and enterocytes of the GI tract.* PaleoFiber® RS benefits GI health through its ability to support microbial balance and proper intestinal permeability and integrity.* Additionally, this formula may help support optimal blood sugar and insulin metabolism, normal appetite, and cardiovascular health.
