Health Canada has approved HI-MAIZEresistant starch from Ingredion Incorporated, Westchester, IL, as a novel fiber source. HI-MAIZE is marketed in Canada by Ingredion Canada Incorporated. This recent approval is a part of Health Canada’s revised Policy for Labeling and Advertising of Dietary Fibre-Containing Food Products, introduced in February 2012.
 
The approval allows for HI-MAIZE resistant starch to be declared as a fiber source in food products as permitted by the Canadian Food Regulations. HI-MAIZE has long been declared a dietary fiber in the U.S. and its numerous health related benefits have been validated by more than 200 scientific publications.
 
Ingredion has been marketing HI-MAIZE resistant starch as a dietary fiber with proven health related benefits in weight and energy management and as well as glycemic and digestive health in North America for more than 15 years. It is a fine, white starch, which invisibly substitutes for flour in foods such as baked goods, pasta, snacks, pizza and delivers textural advantages compared to other types of insoluble dietary fibers.
