Why

Glucomannan is a soluble dietary fibre extracted from the root of the konjac plant (Amorphophallus konjac) — a tuber native to Southeast Asia used as a food and traditional remedy for centuries. When glucomannan comes into contact with water in the stomach, it absorbs many times its own weight in water and forms a thick, gel-like mass. This gel-forming property underpins its multiple health benefits. The expanding gel creates a feeling of fullness in the stomach, helping to reduce overall food intake when taken before meals — making it a valuable addition to a weight management programme. As a soluble fibre, glucomannan binds to bile acids in the digestive tract, which are then excreted rather than reabsorbed — the liver must then draw on circulating cholesterol to produce more bile acids, helping to maintain serum lipid levels already within the healthy range. Clinical studies have demonstrated that glucomannan can provide temporary relief of constipation by adding bulk and moisture to stool. By slowing gastric emptying and carbohydrate absorption, it also helps support healthy post-meal blood glucose levels. As a prebiotic fibre, glucomannan feeds beneficial gut bacteria, supporting a healthy gut microbiome. NOW Foods has been a trusted family-owned supplement brand since 1968.
