Composition, properties and health benefits of indigestible carbohydrate polymers as dietary fiber: a review.

TL;DR: Inclusion of indigestible carbohydrates as dietary fiber in daily diet imparts several health benefits such as prevention or reduction of bowel disorders, and decrease risk of coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Mechanisms of starch digestion by α-amylase-Structural basis for kinetic properties.

TL;DR: The current classification of resistant starch types as RS1,2,3,4 should be replaced by one which recognizes the essential kinetic nature of RS, and that there are two fundamental origins for resistance based on rates-determining access/binding of enzyme to substrate and rate-d determining conversion of substrate to product once bound.

Dietary fiber, inulin, and oligofructose: a review comparing their physiological effects

TL;DR: It is concluded from this review that "nondigestible fructo-oligosaccharides," even though they are not included in the carbohydrate fraction that is quantified as dietary fiber by classic analytical methods, have most of the physiological effects of a dietary fiber.
