Shelf life: 12–18 months – store sealed, < 25 °C, < 65 % RH

How to Use

Blend 1 tbsp into smoothies or probiotic shots for prebiotic resistant starch.

Replace 15 % wheat flour in gluten-free baking to improve texture and fibre.

Add 5 % to nutrition bars or keto bread mixes for low-GI bulk and binding.

Key Benefits

Provides ≈ 55 % RS-II and pectin for gut-microbiome and satiety claims.

Very low intrinsic sugars (< 3 %) supports keto and diabetic formulations.

Natural potassium (~1 350 mg/100 g) enhances electrolyte positioning.

No carriers; fine 80-mesh milling disperses smoothly without clumping.

How does the resistant starch in green-banana powder support gut health and glycaemic control?

Unripe bananas contain type-II resistant starch—granules that escape digestion in the small intestine. When 15 g RS-II reaches the colon, Bifidobacteria ferment it to butyrate, strengthening the mucosal barrier and lowering intestinal pH. A randomised crossover study (n = 30) showed that adding 20 g green-banana RS to the evening meal reduced next-morning fasting glucose by 7 %. Our powder averages 55 % RS; a 10 g serving supplies ~5.5 g RS, contributing meaningfully toward the 12 g/day prebiotic-fibre target EFSA cites for improved bowel function. Because intrinsic sugars are under 3 %, formulators achieve “low-sugar” or “keto-friendly” claims while adding prebiotic functionality—ideal for gut-health bars, synbiotic RTDs and diabetic meal shakes.

Claim strength: Moderate.

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple human studies; Moderate = a few trials; Emerging = early lab data.

How does green-banana powder improve texture in gluten-free and keto baking?

RS-II particles and pectin supply water-binding and viscoelasticity absent in rice or almond flour. Replacing 20 % rice flour with green-banana powder in gluten-free bread increased loaf volume by 18 % and reduced crumb crumbliness 30 % after three-day storage.

Claim strength: High.

Can the powder be used as a fat replacer in calorie-reduced sauces?

Yes—colloidal RS swells in water, mimicking fat mouthfeel. A 3 % inclusion cut mayonnaise fat from 70 % to 50 % without sensory-panel detection, saving 90 kcal/100 g.

Claim strength: Moderate.

Is green-banana powder FODMAP-friendly?

The product is low in fructans and polyols; Monash University classifies < 50 g green-banana flour per serve as low-FODMAP, making it suitable for sensitive-gut formulations.

Claim strength: High.

How does dehydration affect potassium bioavailability?

Potassium salts are heat-stable; ICP-OES assays show ~1 350 mg K/100 g. A 10 g serving delivers 135 mg K (3 % RDA), supporting “source of potassium” claims in electrolyte drink mixes.

Claim strength: High.

What is the sensory profile compared with ripe-banana powder?

Because sugars convert to starch early, flavour is neutral-cereal with faint grass notes—ideal where banana aroma is undesired (e.g., savoury snacks, clean-label thickeners).

Claim strength: High.
