Green Banana Powder

Great Things 4 Life Green Banana Powder is made in the USA with ungassed unripe green bananas, they are peeled, slcied, dried under specific conditions and temperatures to ensure keeping the high level of resistant starch , also known as insoluble dietary fiber, and ground into 100% natural fluffy powder texture without additives, preservatives or any other additional ingredient.

What is Resistant Starch?

Resistant starch is a type of food that “resists” digestion by enzymes in the stomach or small intestine, reaching the colon tract intact because it acts more like  fiber than a starch.

Why you should add Resistant Starch to your diet

The RS presented in GT4Life Banana Powder is a great Prebiotic source. “Prebiotics are indigestible carbohydrates that reach the colon intact and selectively feed many strains of beneficial bacteria. Prebiotics are generaly classified into three different types:
non-starch polysaccharides, soluble fiber, and resistant starch ( RS). Each of these types of Prebiotics feed different species of gut bacteria, but among these, RS is emerging as uniquely benefical” (1)
Most starchy foods like breads, potatoes, pastas, noodlesm rice are digeste very fast and coverted quiclky into sugars, increasing blood sugar spikes. Banana Powder on the other hand may help lower blood sugar levels. Additionally, it may help you feel more satiated, lowers pH levels and helps reduce cell damage.  Another great benefit of green banana powder is that it helps form good bacteria in the gut, and this good bacteria helps protect the intestine cells.
