US 12,702,149 B2 · Resistant starch from natural sources and their preparation

Abstract

The invention relates to a dietary fiber rich composition derived from plants parts, preferably from ginger, turmeric and Emblica. The composition has at least 45% dietary fiber and most of it is insoluble fibre. The insoluble fibre mostly comprises of resistant starch, the composition has at least 15% resistant starch. The invention also relates to a method of extracting and enrichment of fibre from plant parts. The method further includes solvent extraction, acid treatment and enzymatic treatment. The Starch in the composition either enriched and/or chemical modified. The composition has a place in novel food products, for food processing purposes, as functional food, dietary supplementation purposes and pharmaceutical preparations. Composition has clinically significant activity towards fat loss, blood glucose regulation, inhibiting inflammation and enhance bioavailability.
