Episode 2641:

Eric Leija explores the benefits of resistant starch, a unique carbohydrate that can aid in fat loss and improve gut health. Learn how incorporating resistant starch into your diet can enhance your overall fitness and well-being.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ericleija.com/resistant-starch-the-carb-that-can-help-you-get-shredded/

Quotes to ponder:

"Resistant starch is a type of carbohydrate that doesn’t get digested in the small intestine and instead reaches the large intestine intact."

"Incorporating resistant starch into your diet can help you burn more fat, feel fuller longer, and improve your gut health."

"It’s found naturally in foods like green bananas, oats, beans, and cooked and cooled rice and potatoes."
