Action mechanism of white kidney bean

Human digestion and absorption of starch

Starch is a high molecular carbohydrate, which is a polysaccharide polymerized by glucose molecules. It cannot be directly absorbed by the human body. It needs to be digested and decomposed into glucose before it can be absorbed by the human body.

The digestion of starch starts from the mouth, salivary amylase（ α- Amylase) decomposes part of starch into dextrin, oligosaccharide, maltose and glucose (due to short residence time, the amount of starch digested is very small). Undigested starch in the mouth (mostly) goes to the small intestine, in pancreatic amylase and intestinal amylase（ α- Under the action of amylase), starch is converted into glucose. Finally, starch enters the blood circulation in the form of glucose and is absorbed by the human body

α- Effect of amylase inhibitor

α- Amylase inhibitors can effectively inhibit saliva and intestinal tract in human and other animals α- Amylase activity, inhibit the decomposition (digestion) of carbohydrates such as starch, increase the sense of satiety, reduce food intake, reduce blood glucose level, slow down fat accumulation, control weight gain, etc. Therefore, it plays a role in managing body weight and regulating blood glucose.
