English term or phrase: Dietary starch
Hola compañeros

Me encontré con este término que traduje como "fécula dietética", ¿está correcto así?
Les paso algo de contexto para que deduzcan cuál es el término correcto.

Young dried roots also were used as a source of dietary starch after being blanched to remove the bitter saponin that is the plant’s medicinal component.


Gracias.

agree  Charles Davis: "Dietary" quiere decir simplemente comestible (para diferenciarlo del almidón que se emplea para otros fines).
