Description
The konjac plant (Amorphophallus konjac) grows in slopes 2000 to 4000 ft above sea level, where it enjoys the habitat’s clean air and water. Konjac is a kind of perennial herbage plant with low energy, low protein and high fiber. Glucomannan is the main component of konjac. Glucomannan is a water-soluble polysaccharide that is considered a dietary fiber. It is a hemicellulose component in the cell walls of some plant species. Glucomannan is a food additive used as an emulsifier and thickener. Glucomannan for the purposes of appetite reduction, weight management, treatment of constipation and management of high cholesterol levels.Benefit 1. Weight management – Glucomannan fills the stomach and slows the digestion process, which helps the consumer feel “full” for longer, reducing the urge for heavy meals or snacks. 2. Help control blood sugar level – By extending the time required to digest a meal, sugars and carbohydrates from other food intake are processed slower, which reduces spikes in blood sugar levels. 3. Reduce cholesterol – Glucomannan gel in the digestive system inhibits the absorption of lipids, such as LDL (bad cholesterol). 4. Regulate bowel movements – As with many food items that contain dietary fibres, glucomannan can help regulate bowel movements. 5. Protect liver and stomach
