Glucomannan
Description:Glucomannan is a type of soluble fiber that comes from the konjac root, which is native to Asia. It is often used as a dietary supplement to promote weight loss and improve digestive health. When glucomannan is mixed with a liquid, it forms a gel-like substance that can help to reduce appetite by promoting a feeling of fullness. It can also help to regulate bowel movements and relieve constipation. Some studies have suggested that glucomannan may be effective for weight loss and it is a common ingredient in weight loss products, such as Lipozene.
