Resistant starch is a type of carbohydrate that "resists" digestion in the small intestine and instead passes into the large intestine, where it acts like a fiber. Unlike regular starches, it is not broken down into glucose, so it doesn’t spike blood sugar levels. In the colon, resistant starch is fermented by gut bacteria, producing short-chain fatty acids, such as butyrate, which benefit digestive health.
