Now available from Cargill Food & Pharma Specialties is ActiStar™ RT (resistant tapioca), which is meant to provide the benefits of high fiber in lower net-carbohydrate food formulations. Functioning as a replacement for flour with about 80% total dietary fiber, ActiStar RT can be useful in reducing the total net-carbs in high-carb foods such as breads and cereal. ActiStar RT has a low water-holding capacity, permitting high levels of inclusion with few formulation changes, and a non-gummy texture. Since tapioca, the source of resistant starch in ActiStar RT, is the blandest of all starches, according to the company, it doesn’t detract from the desired taste, texture or appearance of finished products.
