Natural Evolution has created an amazing array of products made from banana starch. This Australian Resistant Banana Starch is the highest grade and level of resistant starch in the world, clinically tested in an internationally accredited laboratory.
So what exactly is a resistant starch? Resistant Starch is a food source that resists digestion in the small intestine and offers the consumer some very unique health benefits.
We're here to tell you all about these amazing benefits!
Green Banana Resistant Starch
Natural Evolution's Green Banana Resistant Starch is a 100% natural source of resistant starch, made entirely from the nutritious green lady finger bananas in tropical North Queensland, Australia. It is used as a daily supplement for health and wellbeing and is best taken with water or a smoothie. It's also just as easy to sprinkle over food like cereals, porridge, muesli or yoghurt.
Green Banana Resistant Starch is a 3 in 1 multi-fibre and prebiotic that helps boost your immune system. It feeds your microbiome which are the billions of tiny good bacteria and fungi that live in your gut and controls much of your health. When these fibres enter your digestive system they encourage production of digestive enzymes. This nourishes you with good bacteria and in turn heals your gut and contributes to the overall wellbeing of you.
Weight Loss
Natural Evolution's Green Banana Resistant Starch helps you loose weight. How? In this form, the starch allows you to eat once and feel very satisfied. It actually gives you the feeling of eating twice. So the liklihood of you making it from breakfast to lunch without those cravings for unhealthy snacks in between, is a lot greater. This being said it helps prevent diabetes and helps treat diabetes. Another benefit is that it helps lower bad cholesterol and decreases inflammation associated with obesity.
Resistant Starch in this form also increases metabolism and removes aflatoxins and inflammation. Your metabolism is the process your body uses to make and burn energy from food. So with an increased metabolism you can expect to burn more calories and see an increase in weight loss.
Improves Colon Health
Because this reistant starch is a prebiotic and helps heal your gut, you can also expect to have improved and more regular bowel movement.
If you're someone who doesn't go to the toilet at least once or twice a day, we strongly recommend that you try this powder and see what a difference it makes for you. When you aren't going to the toilet regularly these toxins start to get stored in your body. So this powder is really great for detoxifying your body and helping you stay regular. It also helps improve symptoms of diarrhoea too.
These amazing detoxing capabilities of the starch can help reduce incidences of gallstones, which usually occurs due to excess cholesterol.
So why is this Green Banana Resistant Starch important? To help support a healthy gut microbiome. There are so many benefits this resistant starch has and it's so easy to incorporate everyday that we simply have to reiterate it all again. It's a prebiotic that boosts the immune system, aids in weight loss, increases absorption and capacity of antioxidants and minerals, improves colon health, prevents and aids in treatment of diabetes, lowers cholesterol, reduces incidence of gallstones and helps improve symptoms of diarrhoea.
