Unlocking the potential of resistant starches from underutilized tropical fruits as substrates for fermentation into short-chain fatty acids

Resistant starches (RS) are non-digestible, low molecular weight polysaccharides that, when consumed, act as prebiotics and provide multiple physiological benefits. Colonic fermentation of RS can yield short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which have therapeutic potential against metabolic disorders such...
