Glucomannan is a soluble, bulk-forming fiber derived from the konjac root (Amorphophallus konjac). Clinical studies have demonstrated that Glucomannan can provide temporary relief of constipation and may help to maintain serum lipid levels already within the healthy range. In addition, because Glucomannan helps to promote satiety (feeling of fullness), it can be an effective addition to a weight management plan that includes a healthy diet and exercise program.
Glucomannan is a food additive used as an emulsifier and thickener. It is very low carb and very low glycemic. Many people use Glucomannan Powder in low carb baking. Check out these great

This product really does work when using along with a weight loss program. When taken before your meals (not snacks) it helps you feel satisfied faster than food alone. It will not make you feel bloated or overly stuffed, either. On average, I have lost around 4 lbs. per week using this product and following a healthy eating lifestyle. This has been my motivation to keep going on the journey of weight loss! My cholesterol levels have been great too. Good luck to others who try this product, it is worth it!!!
