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.
We get resistant starch from the food we eat. The highest sources are raw potatoes, green bananas, green plantains, cooked and cooled potatoes, rice and beans. If you eat grains and beans, think potato salad, cold rice salads, re-heated beans with your eggs, that sort of thing.
