Resistant starch, a type of fibre that resists digestion in the small intestine, is a valuable food source for gut bacteria in the large intestine. These bacteria ferment resistant starch, producing beneficial short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), particularly butyrate, which supports gut health and protects against diseases.  

In this episode I explain why resistant starch is important to have in your diet, the foods that contain it and how you can use one simple food to feed your beneficial bacteria.
