    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!

    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 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'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.

    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!

    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.

    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.
