Obesity is a substantial public health challenge across the globe. The use of resistant starch has been proposed as a probable management strategy for complications of obesity. We investigated the effects of resistant starch intake on lipid profiles, glucose metabolism, antioxidant status, lipid peroxidation marker, blood pressure, and anthropometric variables in subjects with overweight or obesity. In this 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2 × 2 crossover trial, 21 Participants (mean age, 35 ± 7.0 years; body mass index, 32.4 ± 3.5 kg/m 2 ) were given 13.5 g Hi-Maize 260 or placebo daily for 4 weeks, separated by a 4-week washout period. Changes in total antioxidant status (p = 0.04) and serum concentrations of insulin in 52.4% participants with insulin levels above 16 µIU/mL at the baseline (p = 0.04) were significantly different in the three phases. In addition, the mean of serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol after the intervention was significantly higher than after baseline value (p = 0.04). We found no significant differences in serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood sugar, insulin, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, quantitative insulin sensitivity check index, superoxide dismutase activity, malondialdehyde, blood pressure, and anthropometric variables in the three phases of baseline, after intervention with resistant starch and after placebo. Resistant starch consumption improved serum insulin concentrations, lipid profiles, and antioxidant status in subjects with overweight or obesity.
