Inhibitory effect of chestnut (Castanea mollissima Blume) inner skin extract on the activity of α-amylase, α-glucosidase, dipeptidyl peptidase IV and in vitro digestibility of starches.

TLDR
The chestnut inner skin is a useful resource for regulating postprandial blood sugar level because it reduces the rapidly digestible starch and increased the resistant starch after incorporation into A-, B- or C- crystallinity starch.

Microwave-Assisted Extraction as a Green Technology Approach to Recover Polyphenols from Castanea sativa Shells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the importance of C. sativa shells in chestnut processing, and propose a method to extract the shells from the chestnut shells to improve the quality of the shells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanistic study on inhibition of porcine pancreatic α-amylase using the flavonoids from dandelion.

TL;DR: A benefit of incorporating the dandelion flavonoids in making functional foods in managing the diet of the diabetes is suggested, as the positive values of enthalpy and entropy change reveal that the binding was predominately driven by hydrophobic interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insights into the effects of caffeic acid and amylose on in vitro digestibility of maize starch-caffeic acid complex.

TL;DR: The inhibitory effect of CA on amylolytic enzymes played a major role and the change of starch structure exhibited a minor role in the digestibility of the maize starch-CA complexes.

Flavonoids for Controlling Starch Digestion: Structural Requirements for Inhibiting Human α-Amylase

TL;DR: The findings show that certain naturally occurring flavonoids act as inhibitors of human alpha-amylase, which makes them promising candidates for controlling the digestion of starch and postprandial glycemia.
