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.
Resistant starch has a small particle size, white appearance, bland flavor and low water-holding capacity. Resistant starch typically replaces flour in foods such as bread and other baked goods, pasta, cereal and batters because it can produce foods with similar color and texture of the original food.
