Resistant starch. Resistant starch is starch that escapes digestion in the small intestine. It comes in several types: whole grains and seeds, raw potato and green banana, cooked and cooled starchy foods, and modified starches. The kind from raw potato tuber is the type used in Soda Lean.
How It Works In The Gut
Because it is not digested early, resistant starch travels on to the large intestine, where gut bacteria ferment it. Fermentation produces short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate, which gut cells use as fuel.
Why It Is In Soda Lean
Resistant starch is studied in routines for digestive wellness and for steadier after-meal responses.* Many people also enjoy the idea that it behaves like fiber while coming from a familiar food, the potato.

Good To Know
