Application of Nova Vitae Glucomannan from Konjac:
Konjac is made from the Asian konjac plant. These plants grow in warm regions such as East Asia.
The plants have a starchy tuber, which is very high in dietary fiber.
These dietary fibers are called Glucomannan.
This part of the plant is used to make flour, jelly and dietary fiber supplements, for example. Glucomannan is a water-soluble dietary fiber. It consists of about 40% glucomannan gum.
It is a very popular thickener in Asian cuisines.
The dietary fiber of the tuber is able to absorb a lot of water, including in our intestines. There it turns into a gel-like substance.
HEALTHY?
Konjac is particularly well known in the world of weight loss / diets / and weight loss. It contains very few / hardly any calories, but thanks to the dietary fibers that turn into a jelly-like substance in the stomach, it can give us a full and saturated feeling.
In addition, it ensures a delayed emptying of the stomach, which can be beneficial against appetite and / or high satiety.
The gel-like substance also feeds the "good intestinal bacteria" in our intestines, which convert the fibers into short-chain fatty acids.
