Konjac Root: The Foundation of a Nutritious Superfood

The konjac root, known as the devil's tongue, is the foundation for healthy konjac flour and a key ingredient in our konjac products. This unique root comes from the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and contains the soluble fiber glucomannan, known for its many health benefits - from assisting with weight loss to being used in traditional Chinese medicine as a remedy for various ailments such as diabetes, obesity, or skin issues.

What makes the konjac root so special is its exceptionally high content of glucomannan - up to 74% in our products, a much higher concentration compared to other konjac products. This fiber contributes to satiety and can create a gel-like substance that expands in the stomach, thus helping to reduce calorie intake.

Those seeking a healthy alternative to conventional foods will find a solution at Shileo. Discover our range of konjac products that benefit from the power of this amazing root, and be inspired by the innovative ways to incorporate konjac into your everyday life.

The product arrived quickly, the quality is amazing (not the slimy wet konjac substitutes that smell fishy). Cooking time is around 12-15 min, so the rice is perfect for making risotto or paella. The pasta is also amazing with some good carbonara, pesto or bolognese! They are perfect for a keto or low-carb lifestyle!

OK this company is amazing. I purchased the konjak rice. I'm on a keto diet so thought this would be perfect for me. It was amazing ! Easy to cook and honestly the closest thing to actual rice I've tried so far. And I've tried alot of products. Egg fried rice is my favourite dish because frying the konjak rice makes it that bit more crispier and rice like. Anyway, delivery was fast, Communication too. The only thing I would say is that they should provide the booklet that is also delivered, in English as well as German.. for those who don't speak German. But it was easy to cook so it didn't make a difference THANK YOU SHILEO, I've ordered another set. :)

Excellent support. Fast delivery. Low carb. Products are high quality (dried instead of preserved in liquid), very delicious and have the perfect texture when prepared as stated. Taste / texture can be compared with glass noodles (in my opinion). Thumbs up and 5+ stars :-) Keep going!
