Factory Direct Sale Pure Organic konjac root extract glucomannan

Glucomannan is extracted from konjac. The appearance of konjac glucomannan powder is a white powder.

Konjac contains glucosan, which is a kind of high-molecular compound, which has strong water absorption. After absorbing water, the volume can expand 80-100 times. It is easy to be digested and absorbed after eating. Frequent consumption of konjac food is great for the body.

Function

1. Lose fat and lose weight

Whether in a normal diet or a high-calorie diet, KGM plays a role in weight loss. The research results of West China Medical University further confirmed this effect. After eating konjac powder for 30 days, the weight loss rate was 78.4%, and the decline range was 0.5--4.7 kg, and the individual differences were large.

2. Ecological laxative

KGM absorbs water, increases stool volume, and improves intestinal flora; intestinal bacteria decompose KGM, produce short-chain fatty acids, and stimulate peristalsis, all of which are beneficial to defecation.

3. Stabilize blood sugar

KGM is not digested and absorbed, contains no calories, has a feeling of satiety, and can reduce and delay the absorption of glucose. It is a good supplementary food for diabetes.

4. Lowering blood lipids and anti-fatty liver

Plasma lipids typically measure cholesterol and triglycerides. KGM helps lipid metabolism and can lower cholesterol and triglycerides.

Application of Konjac glucomannan

1. Application in food industry: make gelled food, used as thickener and adhesive for jelly, ice cream, gruel, meat, pasta, solid beverage, jam and other foods.

2. Application in health care industry: regulating lipid metabolism, preventing obesity, regulating immune function.

3. Application in chemical industry: Due to the large average molecular weight of konjac glucomannan of 200,000 to 2 million, high viscosity and good fluidity, it has been used in petroleum, printing and dyeing and other chemical industries.

Traditional Konjac Application

Food additives: Because KGM has high water holding capacity, swelling, thickening, gelling, emulsifying, suspending, cohesive, etc., its performance is better than that of agar, carrageenan, gelatin and other commonly used food glues. Additives are increasingly used.

Limitations: Due to the high water-holding, swelling and thickening properties of KGM, the processing technology and edible method of konjac are limited, the utilization efficiency of KGM is extremely low, and its health care function cannot be highlighted.

Innovative new konjac applications

Konjac tablets and konjac granules: Overcoming the processing technology of konjac, changing the use method of konjac, greatly increasing the content of KGM, so that the function of KGM can be fully exerted.
