What is a "resistant flour"?


I wonder if it's like Dreamfields pasta that claim they are not well
digested? *Not that I think such claims work in actual humans.


Or like Carbalose flour that's the basis for Carbquik,
which is fairly widely used by LC folks. *I think they say
they remove the non-fiber carbs, but exactly how, what
it is, how it may get metabolized isn't clear.


If you *must* use resistant flour, make sure to use a glucometer to
test to see how you react. Some products that have been advertised as
effectively low carb have been shown to spike blood sugar at least in
some people.

Better to eat enough saturated fat that you are not tempted.

Why do I need to do that? I'm not diabetic and I don't have
a glucometer. I don't have any negative reaction to them.
And why should I avoid them and eat saturated fat if I prefer
some pancakes now and then made from Carbquik?
