Curious about more BENEFITS of Glucomannan? We have an EXCLUSIVE summary of researched health benefits on our KoFi page: ko-fi.com/album/Supplement-Spotlights-W7W7P7VNM
I eat one meal a day but hated the constant hunger pangs ..this fiber changed everything ..now I awake in the morning and take a dose of konjac .hunger is gone until around noon then I take my second dose...then an hour before my only meal of the day I take my final dose...ladies and gentlemen if you do this I promise daily weight loss no matter how stubborn your fat is.
The last thing you said about feeling "gross full" on the glucomannan was actually the opposite for me. I feel gross full if I overeat, but the glucomannan just makes me feel not hungry. Which is awesome!!
Hey dear 👋 If you want the best appetite for the best shape of your body then you can stay with me .I will provide the best for you which makes you feel hungry. Thankyou ❤ Stay healthy and make your body shape best 💖
I have been using Glucomannan for about 2 weeks. I ordered the powder so I can regulate the dosage and avoid potential side effects. I am an intermittent faster. I don't eat breakfast or lunch and eat my meal around 6PM. I started with 1/4 teaspoon mix in a cup of water, drink all of 8 ounces and then drink another cup. I have found to be eating less and slower. Also I have more complete bowel movements, no more constipation and I might add I feel as though I was getting a colon cleanse initially. I haven't really lost weight but I feel less sluggish and have more energy. I would love to loose about 40 pounds but I feel the glucomannan has helped me more than any supplement or plan I have tried.
I have had it in fasting mode but more frequently I drink it a cup of water while making my “one meal a day.” I also added it to a protein shake after a workout. It’s pretty versatile. I have never had stomach issues, bloating or cramping as noted here. I believe it’s because using a powder allows more precise dosage. My best is 1/4 teaspoon.
I’ve been eating shirataki rice or glucomannan rice for 3 days. I only tried it because it has less calories than normal rice. Little did I know that it actually suppresses my appetite which is good for me. From eating 3 times a day with snacks, Im now eating only once or twice a day without actually feeling hungry. I already feel like I lost a few pounds. Thanks for this vid! Appreciate you!
That’s not healthy. You will crash your metabolism and cause other problems (thyroid etc). Unless youre eating a a variety of foods and calories in one meal then fasting, you’re looking at some problems in the future. Consult a dietitian/medical doctor.
I can see why taking it before a meal would be good. But have only taken it after a meal, when i am still really craving more food. Within a couple minutes I am breathing a big sigh of relief. No nausea, just happy that i am not craving more food which will cause me to put on weight.
The konjac pasta made out of glucomannan does exactly what the doc said... I am always full because I feel kinda sick as if I ate a lot. Nausea 24/7 but I lost few kgs already considered I don’t really have extra weight, just wanted to get thinner . Plus The konjac noodles tastes great with soya sauce or teriyaki sauce veggies etc. totally in love with this product
Thanks for this information on Gulcomannan. I've been using glucomannan as a sauce thickener, like cornstarch would do. I didn't realize it was for suppressing appetite.
I use Glucomannon in powder form. Generally, a tablespoon stirred in 20 oz of cold water. I'm using it as I start following a 16/8 Intermittent Fasting Protocol. I tend to be hungry in the morning and need something to stabilize me until my feeding window. I'm T2D so my goal is reverse completely.
I’ve been taking two glucomannan supplements (total 2400mg) after dinner. I have been trying to eat less at dinner time and I really think this supplement helps reduce any potential hunger pains before bed and keep me from late night, snacking ! It has definitely helped with that. I think I have lost a few pounds, but maybe because I have changed my dietary habits to eating more plant-based and only very lean proteins.
I started taking glucomannan along with ashwaganda gummies with ksm yesterday, I am also intermittent fasting so I only eat 1 meal a day which is dinner. I must say that im not hungry and hopefully i can lose the 30 pounds that I need to lose.
@@theTimeIsNow2009 I took the pills and what I did was take 2 pills before dinner because that is the only meal that I eat, But it says to take 2 pills 30 minutes before your meal.
At my Asian market I found vegan shrimp made of konjac and they are extremely delicious. I've been eating them for years, and if you like konjac you will love them!
I ate shiratake pasta yesternight and it felt like my stomach was saying finally thank you i felt this nice buzzy warm feeling in my stomach and my hunger cravings were gone and i woke up today feeling happy overall!! So im thinking i needed this type of fiber all along!!
Amazing. I had the same, warm, fuzzy..happy..relaxed feeling..like my body wash saying "Ahhhh..yes!! ..Finally..thank you. The feeling of relaxation and satisfaction lasted for hours after eating the Shirataki noodles dish I had made. I Highly recommend Konjac products.. So good.. on so many levels.
For easier explanation on the gross feeling. If your diet comprises more on low carbs high protein meals, example are steak, pork chops or chicken with small sides of bread or vegetables, you will experience the gross feeling of sickness when you l consume konjac. If your diet comprises more on the mix of high carbs meals, like pasta, breads or rice. You will either not feel that gross feeling or you will only feel it a little bit
Konjac didn't help me at. Just made me feel queasy and did not really suppress my appetite. I found upping my fiber like oatmeal and adding more protein to my meals helps more.
I have no issues with discipline around foods, and don't have issues around needing to feel "full" i feel full no matter what I eat ... but have heard a lot of good things about it, and thinking about eating one meal a day. Done Keto since 2017, and went to Carnivore in 2022 to lose weight which helped me out a lot, but its a very limited hard core way of eating and I stalled in my weight loss at 7 months, been 15 months now and can't seem to lose anymore weight. I am doing all this to get off of blood pressure meds (though weight loss) that I got on for the first time at 63.
I see that several people are commenting on their diets which include shirataki noodles and Konica pastas. I have tried shirataki and if konjac is similar to shirataki, it has a bland taste and the feel of rubber! I had to throw that expensive rubbery concoction in the trash.
I was just looking up glucomannan and nausea. I’ve taken this four times now with a full glass of water or water and juice mix. Very sadly. I am nauseated with it and vomited. Not sure the reason but just sharing this experience. Wish it worked different day for me!
Hey baby try eating the hard mints just always keep them with you or eat plain chips or pretzels it helps me when I feel sick to my stomach good luck 🤞
@@nooralmuhaidib9040 I’m taking 1 g 3 x a day in protein shakes - they thicken my shake plus help keep me full. Note 1g to 300ml water in shakes and additional water in between.
I'm always feeling bloated and I am not regular at all. I wonder if this would help me. I do drink enough water Tried now. Didn't work for me not even to go to toilet
I'm on corticosteroids and am hungry all the time I eat a low calorie low fat diet, I have a portion plate and I stick to it religiously, but am really struggling to loose weight, my doctor has put me on orlistat but it's not working, I eat very little fat, I know you can't give medical advice, but being steroid dependent and on immune suppressants, I'm always hungry do you think it would be worth suggesting this to my doctor will be grateful for any reply 🙏
He dear 👋 Do you want to lose 15 -20 lbs. I have some recommendations for you. If you want interested in it. Then you can chat with me . Thankyou Replies within a day.
So wanted to try this until you said some people feel nauseous I already get nauseous from time to time and it’s not a good feeling so I’ll pass on this😩
30 - 45 minutes before eating. Dissolve it in warm water, and drink it right away because it turns into a gel in about a minute or so. Make sure you drink plenty of water or you could end up with stomach cramping, abdominal pain, or constipation. Some people prefer to mix it in their protein shakes or smoothies, and they say it greatly reduces their appetite.
@@1234sexy4321 Yes, but the capsules work similarly, just probably not quite as quickly. You should take the capsules 30-45 minutes before a meal, and as with the powder, be sure to drink plenty of water
@@1234sexy4321 Do NOT dissolve it before taking. This is why it is an illegal substance in Australia. It's a big choking hazard. It should be taken as a capsule as intended with a large glass of water.
Can u have this at night? I work till late night and at times when I get home from work at 9pm I get really hungry even after drinking 2 cups of water still hungry
Good Morning Dr. Yeung. I would like to ask about an aid that would help increase weight loss for obesity? Also with high blood pressure that is under control with medication. Thank you 💕🙏
Easy...listen carefully...start eating just once a day...at first your body is gonna rebel so give your body time to adjust...next cut out drinking any calories. .cut out candy and table sugar...go for a daily walk ..do a three day fast once per month ..why play around with losing weight when you can get serious and see daily weight loss
Do you know if it’s safe to use Glucomanin if you’ve had Gastric Sleeve weight loss surgery a few years ago and are starting to regain? I’m worried about how it bulks up the stomach, wouldn’t that cause the sleeve to stretch out over time? Thanks
I know a number of patients using glucomannan while on their sleeve. Some stretching is normal over time, and taking a soluble fiber supplement isn't likely going to stretch it more. Ask your doctor or surgeon to make sure it's safe for you.
Interesting question, the evidence would suggest there might be slight interference with absorbing fat-soluble vitamins like Vitamin E, but not as much interference as something like orlistat.
@@BrianYeungND another canadian here! i also want to use it in conjunction with intermittent fasting (8/16). would you recommend i take it with the last meal (6pm) of the day or anytime with no meal during the fasting when i feel hungry? thanks in advance
I read that konjac jelly contains carrageenan, which can become toxic when combined with the stomach acid therefore increasing a risk for cancer(s), I have already consumed some packets of konjac jelly so now i am a bit worried. Has anyone else read about this?
Where did you read this? Make sure you check the source of the article. People in Japan have been eating this for centuries, so What you say you read does not make sense.
Konjac root has been used in Asian cultures for hundreds of years and they have a longer life expectancy than the us. You have a way higher chance of dying from diabetes, high cholesterol, stroke, obesity, and so on than getting cancer from Konjac root that is natural and derived from a plant. Keep on feeding yourself with poison. I rather eat this than chicken that has been injected with steroids. Asians eat Konjac root everyday, it’s a key ingredient to make noodles and tofu. Monks sure do live long, they eat tofu everyday.
I'd treat it like any 0 calorie, artificially sweetened drinks, like diet coke. Although it technically has 0 calories, it may cause some people to continue to crave other sweet, carb-heavy foods. So I'd avoid it if I could, or only have it very sparingly, like a little treat.
Yes I want to know as well. I had the sleeve surgery 14 months ago. The last 35 pounds that I want to lose have become so stubborn. I’m willing to try but I already know that my stomach can only hold 5 ounces so I’m confused on the correct dosage for my sleeved stomach.
G'day can yu please share some recent (last 5yrs) studies on konjac I need for assignment. All I can find are studies with no or not substantial effects, but I know it works!
I took only 1/2 a tsp of this 2 nights ago and have been going to the bathroom 4-5x a day. Thank goodness it’s Labor Day weekend. No thanks. I’ll pass.

Does this come in a pill form?
Yes
What if u had the sleeve surgery
Yes I want to know as well. I had the sleeve surgery 14 months ago. The last 35 pounds that I want to lose have become so stubborn. I’m willing to try but I already know that my stomach can only hold 5 ounces so I’m confused on the correct dosage for my sleeved stomach.
All glucomannan is. , is fiber.
It's like psyllium and any other fiber. It absorbs water and gets bigger, and fills you up.
I workout a lot but I still have excess fat around my stomach and thighs I could loose 28lbs would this be a good choice please . Age 51
Thank you
Very interesting. Thank you!
What brand do you recommend?
Im paranoid to swallow them. Choking or stuck somewhere wrong
thank you
Does it effect the Kidney?
G'day can yu please share some recent (last 5yrs) studies on konjac I need for assignment. All I can find are studies with no or not substantial effects, but I know it works!
Tried this stuff in noodle form and in rice form. It tastes terrible, very fishy. I couldn't get on with it at all. ☹️
You need to rinse it well with water in a strainer and then dry fry it. Then it will be tasteless and absorb the flavor of whatever you add to it.
@@theresat947 I did rinse it extremely well. I didn't dry fry - that was not on the instructions on the packets.
If glucomannan powder is mixed with protein powder is the protein still available for the body? Can it still be absorbed or is it useless?
It should be perfectly fine!
How does this compare with cinnamon
So if someone is obese and has stretched out their stomach, will they need larger doses to get the same bulking effect in their stomach?
Fullness. Called watermelon. Called popcorn.
Please tell how to consume 1 gram of glucamannan
I took only 1/2 a tsp of this 2 nights ago and have been going to the bathroom 4-5x a day. Thank goodness it’s Labor Day weekend. No thanks. I’ll pass.
Memo: used by itself, glucomanan is not very effective for weight loss unfortunatly
Memo: normaly dosed between 3-5g are used diveded over the day
