Abstract: In this paper, the process in studies on low glycemic index starchy derivatives is summarized. The glycemic index, physiological function of low glycemic-index food and low glycemic-index starchy derivatives (including indigestible dextrin, slowly digestible starch, resistant-enzyme starch, starch-lipid complex and starch-protein conjugate) are introduced. The long- term potential development of low glycemic-index starchy derivatives is prospected.

Key words: low glycemic-index, starchy food, derivative, physiological function
