Dialysis: The process of removing waste products and excess fluid from the body. Dialysis is necessary when the kidneys are not able to adequately filter the blood.
A resistant starch is a starch that resists this enzymatic action and doesnât break down into sugar molecules. For example, raw cornstarch contains a fair amount of resistant starch. If you were to put some in your mouth and chew on it, it wouldnât start to taste sweet no matter how long you chewed it.
In addition to vegetables, consume other foods with resistant starch, including bananas, oats, beans, legumes and puffed wheat cereal. Aim for a total dietary fiber intake of 25 grams daily for women and 38 grams per day for men, advises the USDA.
