The secret of teff? Resistant starch !

Starch falls into the category of "carbohydrates. We immediately think of potatoes, corn or grains.

However, this is slightly different with teff. After all, this grain of African origin contains large amounts of "resistant starch." An indigestible carbohydrate it is. A type of starch that behaves like dietary fiber.

For a healthy colon

Resistant starch causes good bacteria in our colon to ferment the dietary fiber in teff. Sugars are fermented away and therefore not absorbed. So hardly any sugar left in your intestines, but other substances that nourish our intestines and promote bowel movement.

Moreover, the fatty acids created in the fermentation process ensure optimal absorption of essential vitamins and minerals.

The large amount of fiber in teff makes you feel satiated longer, but also allows you to exercise and exercise longer and more efficiently due to the slow release of carbohydrates.
