Konjac: What Exactly Is It?

Konjac is a plant that thrives in the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and its root is the source of konjac flour. This flour is famed for its fiber glucomannan, which is valued in the food industry for its capacity to induce a strong feeling of fullness. Traditional Chinese Medicine has utilized konjac for centuries as a remedy, for example, in the treatment of Type II Diabetes or asthma.

At Shileo, we focus on the high quality of our konjac flour. We avoid conventional preservation methods that can lead to an unpleasant smell and offer our konjac products in a dried, odor-free form. This makes them a healthy, low-calorie alternative to conventional pasta or rice and suitable for a multitude of diets, from low-carb to gluten-free.
