RESPONSE OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT TO INGESTED CEREAL STARCH

Abstract
Gastric emptying and intestinal absorption were increased by increasing the size of the meal although the percentage emptied and absorbed was essentially unchanged. The rates of emptying and absorption decreased with time. The response of the gastrointestinal tract to ingested cereal starch is similar to its response to dextrose.
