Corn sensitive - be on the lookout for hi-maize

Hi-maize and Z-TRIM, brands of corn-based fiber and resitant starch, may be appearing in your grocery items and on restaurant menus. While the intent of these products is admirable, to increase insoluble and soluble fiber intake, many Americans have trouble tolerating corn-based products. All the more reason to look at your grocery labels and be cognizant about what you order in a restaurant.
