How Are New Trends Expected To Influence The Growth Of The Starch Derivatives Market?
Leading businesses in the starch derivatives market are placing emphasis on the production of corn-based resistant starch. This move is designed to augment the nutritional content of food items, support digestive wellness, and meet rising consumer preference for healthier and functionally robust ingredients. Corn-based resistant starch is a kind of starch extracted from corn that is not digested in the small intestine, substantially increasing the fiber quantity in food preparations. This is highly desirable for health-conscious consumers. For instance, Grain Processing Corp, a US company, launched Fybrin RS, a corn-based resistant starch, in September 2022. Fybrin RS is naturally gluten-free, making it appropriate for various dietary requirements. It also provides less calories than regular carbohydrates, enabling producers to develop products with less calories without giving up taste or texture.
