Konjac Glucomannan is a water-soluble fibre derived from the Japanese Konjac root (Amorphophallus konjac). Konjac Glucomannan has virtually zero calories and has been proven extremely effective in reducing caloric intake from food, being the only dietary supplement approved by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for weight loss. Research also suggests Konjac can be slightly effective in reducing Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) levels and stabilising blood sugar levels.
For weight loss purposes, 1 gram of Konjac should be taken 3 times daily along with 2 glasses of water. Glucomannan’s mechanism of action differs from common fat blockers, which inhibit the hydrolysis of triglycerides; Glucomannan instead works by swelling in the gut to form a gel, microencapsulating food particles so that they are recognised as dietary fibre by the gut. This results in the a portion of ingested food passing through unabsorbed. This is preferential over standard fat blockers, as it does not completely cut out a vital component of the diet – fatty acids. Konjac instead allows for a balanced rate of absorption of all dietary components, whilst still reducing caloric intake.
