HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Konjac Root 2,000 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: konjac root (also called glucomannan), a soluble fiber extracted from the konjac plant. It's a bulking agent that absorbs water and forms a viscous gel in your digestive tract.

The capsules also contain inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose, silica, vegetable magnesium stearate, and vegetable cellulose — which are fillers and binders that hold the supplement together.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: healthy weight management and satiety.
  • We looked for evidence on: Obesity, Constipation, Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes, Metabolic syndrome, appetite suppression — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Glucomannan is rated "Possibly Effective" for Constipation (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Glucomannan is rated "Possibly Effective" for Diabetes, Hyperlipidemia.
  • Also on file: Glucomannan is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Obesity, Metabolic syndrome.

The evidence for konjac root is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for constipation, type 2 diabetes, and high cholesterol.

For high blood pressure, we don't have reliable evidence one way or the other to rate it. If you're considering this supplement for any of those reasons, understand that the science supports it only tentatively — talk with your doctor about whether it's right for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Glucomannan

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Glucomannan is generally well tolerated when you drink plenty of water with it. The most common side effects are mild gastrointestinal issues: abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, nausea, and vomiting — especially at doses above 3 grams daily.

Rare but serious: choking and blockage in your esophagus or intestines can happen if you take the powder dry or don't drink enough fluid, so swallow capsules with a full glass of water. During pregnancy, there isn't enough reliable safety data; talk to your doctor before using it.

Little is known about safety while breastfeeding, so caution is advised — again, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Glucomannan

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Glucomannan.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 2,023 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check any oral medications you're on — that's roughly 2,000 drugs that might have their absorption reduced by glucomannan. This is a Moderate-severity concern, so timing your doses and talking with your pharmacist about spacing is important.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Konjac root may help with constipation, blood sugar control, or cholesterol, but the evidence is tentative. The main caution is that it can interfere with how your body absorbs many oral medications.

If you take any medication by mouth, check it with your pharmacist before starting, and always swallow the capsule with plenty of water to avoid blockage.

Oral Drugs

Theoretically, glucomannan may decrease absorption of drugs taken orally.
Due to its viscosity and bulking effects, there is concern that glucomannan can decrease the absorption of oral drugs. A small clinical study in healthy volunteers shows that taking glyburide 2.5 mg plus glucomannan 3.9 grams with breakfast reduces plasma levels of glyburide when compared with breakfast and glyburide alone. In addition, animal research demonstrates this effect on amoxicillin, but shows increased absorption of metronidazole. This mouse model also demonstrates that metronidazole elimination is prolonged, but amoxicillin elimination is enhanced by 38%; glucomannan may also affect the distribution of some drugs. To avoid changes in absorption, take glucomannan 30-60 minutes after taking oral drugs.

Konjac Root 2,000 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas: Common Questions

Does Konjac Root 2,000 mg by AN Amazing Nutrition Amazing Formulas interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Konjac Root 2,000 mg has a known interaction with 2,022 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Konjac Root 2,000 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough reliable safety data for pregnancy, so talk to your doctor first. During breastfeeding, little is known about safety — ask your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before using it.
What are the most common side effects?
Mild digestive issues: belly pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, nausea, and vomiting — especially if you take more than 3 grams daily or don't drink enough water with it.
What's konjac root actually for?
It's a soluble fiber that absorbs water and bulks up in your gut. Evidence suggests it may help with constipation, blood sugar control, and cholesterol — but the proof isn't rock solid.
Why do I need to drink so much water with it?
Glucomannan swells up when it mixes with liquid. Without enough water, it can clump up and block your throat or intestines — a rare but serious risk. Always take it with a full glass of water.
How much time should I leave between taking this and my medications?
The product facts don't spell out a specific time gap, so ask your pharmacist. Because glucomannan can reduce how much medication your body absorbs, spacing matters — your pharmacist can tell you what works best for your drugs.
