As an excellent source of soluble dietary fiber, konjac gum offers multiple health benefits:
Due to its unique physicochemical properties, konjac gum finds extensive applications in various fields:
What are the main specifications of your Konjac Gum Powder?
Our Konjac Gum Powder features a Glucomannan content of 95%, with SO2 levels under 10ppm, and a viscosity rating between 10,000 to 30,000 mpas. It is Non-Irradiated and Non-GMO.
How does Konjac Glucomannan assist with weight management?
Glucomannan has strong water-absorbing properties and expands 80-100 times in volume after absorbing water. When inside the stomach, it expands 20-100 times upon absorbing gastric juices, which naturally creates a feeling of satiety and helps reduce food intake.
What are the digestive health benefits of Konjac Gum?
It effectively promotes intestinal peristalsis, softens fecal matter, activates overall bowel function, and speeds up the excretion of harmful toxins, helping to prevent constipation and support general colon health.
Can Konjac Gum help regulate blood sugar and lipids?
Yes. Konjac gum reduces the absorption rate of sugars in the intestines, helping to lower postprandial blood glucose levels. Additionally, it helps lower blood cholesterol and triglycerides, supporting cardiovascular health.
What are the common applications of Konjac Gum in the food industry?
It is widely used as a thickener and stabilizer in jellies, jams, juices, and ice creams. It also serves as a gelling agent for konjac tofu and vegetarian imitation foods, and as a binder in noodles and sausages to improve texture.
What is the shelf life and storage recommendation for Konjac Gum Powder?
The product has a shelf life of 24 months. It should be stored in its original packaging away from direct light, under optimal dry conditions at temperatures between 10℃ and 25℃.
