Nondigestible carbohydrate (NDC) classifications. NDCs can be classified into nonstarch polysaccharides and resistant starch. Nonstarch polysaccharides can be further classified by physicochemical properties of solubility, viscosity, and fermentability, whereas resistant starch can be further grouped by resistant starch type (e.g., resistant starch 1, resistant starch 2), structural properties (e.g., botanical origin, granule morphology), processing, and modification.
