Glucomanano
Soluble fibre from konjac root that absorbs water and forms a gel in the stomach, promoting fullness. The EU authorises the claim that it contributes to weight loss on a calorie-reduced diet (3 g/day). In meta-analyses the extra weight loss is small, 0 to 1.3 kg versus placebo.
What is it for?
💡 Absorption: Take 1 g before each main meal (3 a day) with 1-2 glasses of water. Take medication 1 hour before or 4 hours after.
⚠️ Caution: Always take with plenty of water and never right before bed: risk of choking or obstruction. Reduces absorption of some medicines. Monitor glucose if taking diabetes medication.
Recommended doses
Range: 3000 – 4000 mg
Split into 3 doses of 1 g before meals, with water
