Konjac food has now been recognized by the United Nations Food Hygiene Organization as a "valuable natural health food". The health benefits of konjac food lie in the various specific physical and chemical properties of glucomannan.
1. Blood purifier: As konjac glucomannan can effectively inhibit the absorption of fat decomposition substances such as cholesterol and bile acids in the small intestine, promote the excretion of fat from the body, reduce the entry of fat and cholesterol into the blood, and lower the total amount of triglycerides and cholesterol in the serum, it can play a role in preventing hypertension, hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular diseases. According to relevant records, if the human body takes 3 grams of konjac glucoman every day (all taken in three doses) and persists in consuming it for a long time, the above-mentioned effect can be achieved.
2. The scavenger of the gastrointestinal tract: A large number of studies have shown that the unique hydrogel fibers of konjac can maintain a certain degree of intestinal fullness, promote the physiological peristalsis of the intestines, soften feces, accelerate the speed of defecation, reduce intestinal pressure, and relieve constipation.
3. The nemonic of colorectal cancer: The unique hydrogel fibers of konjac can promote the rapid elimination of heavy metal elements and food toxic substances in the intestinal tract, reduce the contact time between harmful substances and the intestinal wall, prevent the intestinal absorption of these substances, remove the retained substances in the stomach, intestines and gallbladder, and effectively reduce the probability of harmful bacterial infections in the colon and rectum. It is an ideal anti-cancer health food.
4. Good news for diabetic patients: Due to the high viscosity of konjac glucomannan, it enhances the stickiness of chyme in the digestive tract, delays the retention time of chyme paste in the gastric cavity, and forms a protective film on the intestinal wall, effectively inhibiting the increase of blood sugar and urine sugar levels. Domestic and foreign experts have confirmed through research that konjac food is a relatively ideal food for diabetics, which can lower blood sugar, improve symptoms and control
