About Konjac paste

Konjac paste, derived from the tuber of the konjac plant native to East Asia, is a versatile and nutrient-light food staple commonly used in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean cuisines. Made primarily from glucomannan, a soluble dietary fiber, it’s celebrated for its low-calorie, low-carbohydrate content, making it a popular choice for weight management and low-carb diets. It’s gluten-free and virtually fat-free, often incorporated into dishes like noodles, jellies, or thickened sauces. Konjac paste supports digestive health due to its high fiber content, which can promote feelings of fullness and regulate bowel movement. However, it requires adequate hydration as its fiber can expand and cause discomfort if consumed without sufficient water. While largely considered safe, it should be used in moderation to avoid digestive side effects in sensitive individuals. Konjac paste is a functional, plant-based ingredient with unique properties suitable for varied dietary preferences.
