Gluccomannan is a form of vegetable fiber derived from the root of the konjac plant (Amorphophallus konjac). This fiber is originally mixed with Asian food as an additive. Currently it is being widely used in many dietary supplements because of its capability of promoting the feeling of fullness. Despite gaining a few scientific supports, an even larger number of scientists disprove its effectiveness as a dietary supplement; accusing it to be the cause of high blood sugar, diarrhea and abdominal pain.
Despite this claims, Gluccomannan is still continually used extensively. Proof to this is the exploding number of Lipozene reviews, promotions and advertisements in the internet; this product being one of the hundreds of other dietary supplement containing Gluccomannan.
