Health claims

Glucomannan in the context of an energy restricted diet contributes to weight loss.

Glucomannan contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.

Gohan konjac rice are an alternative to pasta that is low in calories and carbohydrates and gluten-free.

Our Gohan konjac rice noodles are highly recommended for people following a slimming diet, as they contain glucomannan: a soluble fibre extracted from konjac tuber (Amorphophallus konjac K.Koch), which increases the feeling of fullness. Glucomannan in the context of an energy restricted diet contributes to weight loss¹.

Konjac glucomannan helps reduce LDL cholesterol levels and triglycerides. In addition, it improves intestinal transit and the flora of the gut.

Our Gohan konjac rice contain 2.6% fibre (from glucomannan) and just 7 kcal per 100 g of rehydrated product!

Organic konjac rice (Gohan): Detailed information

Konjac rice are obtained from konnayaku: a gelatinous pasta made from konjac tuber (Amorphophallus konjac K.Koch). Konjac is a plant native to Asia that is grown mainly in Japan, and typically has a tuber that can grow 30 cm in diameter and from which glucomannan is extracted².

Glucomannan is a soluble fibre that absorbs water easily, to form a very thick gel that induces feelings of fullness³. This soluble fibre is also used in case of hyperlipaemia (high levels of blood lipids)², to improve blood glucose levels and reduce cholesterol⁴. It can also be used to regulate intestinal function³.

Our Gohan konjac rice only contain 0.2% carbohydrates and are rich in glucomannan, as they contain 2.6% of this fibre.

Preparing our Gohan (konjac rice)

Rinse pasta under warm water. Boil or fry for 2-3 min. Add directly to the dish.
