Impact of a retrograded starch ingredient obtained from Negro Jamapa beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. Negro Jamapa) on glucose metabolism and oxidative stress in induced diabetic lab rats model.

A retrograded starch ingredient obtained from Negro Jampa beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. Negro Jamapa), applying a debranching process (18 U/g for 12 h) and retrogradation (2 °C for 3 days), was evaluated as a potential functional ingredient to improve glucose homeostasis in a diabetic animal model. The obtained ingredient was reduced in rapid digestible starch amount compared to its related isolated native starch (34.
