Glucomannan Powder 100% Pure by Now Foods - 8 oz Powder

I comparisoned shopped and this was the best value out there and it was delivered on time with no complications.

This product is amazing Blood Sugar is down and remaining consistent.

I have been adding this to my protein shakes for years. Good fiber source, thickens up the shake a little bit too.

Once you get the hang of how to use this to thicken liquids, you'll wonder what you did without it. I use it for gravy, salad dressing, desserts, etc. Just use very small amounts at first. Wait a couple of minutes for it to thicken your liquids. My first salad dressing was almost a solid!

I use this to thicken smoothies, pudding etc. It's good for you and does a nice job of Thickening without a flavor or lumps. It takes very little. the texture can be weird in a pudding, but if you just want something a little thicker you don't get the weird texture.

I use half a teaspoon twice a day usually in my protein mixed with just milk and add it and an icecube to my 'shaker' and shake it til it's foamy and thicker. turns simple milk and vanilla and stevia into a 'shake' fills me up.

THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT BUT MAKE SURE YOU USE HALF A TEASPOON AS ADVISED.THIS STUFF GETS REALLY THICK. AT HALF A TSPN IN 12 OZS YOU CANT HARDLY GET THE WHOLE GLASS DOWN...PEOPLE HAVE A TENDENCY TO OVERDO...DONT

First of all, I take many powders one at a time by putting the powder in my mouth and then mixing with my tongue after taking a little water in my mouth. Glucomannan is a little different and tricky. I take glucomannan powder by putting a level half teaspoon on my tongue only and then immediately taking some water in mouth and mixing the powder with the water quickly using my tongue in my mouth. Adding the water and mixing with the water must be done quickly or the fiber turns to a cement-like material that has to be pried off of my gums/teeth and other mouth crevices with a plastic narrow toothpick. Therefore it's very tricky to mix in the mouth without it forming solid pieces which can immediately adhere anywhere inside of the mouth. However, if done quickly, powder disperses/mixes nicely in mouth and is then able to be swallowed. It's just a personal technique that I use with powders, one powder at a time, like acidophilous powder, liver powder, whey protein, lecithin granules or whatever powder I need to take without using a blender. I think it's quicker to take powders this way. Capsule form might be better for glucomannan but I would think the capsule of glucomannan would then form a solid in the stomach, so I prefer to disperse the glucomannan powder with the water taken quickly in my mouth and then mixing quickly with tongue and swallowing the water/glucomannan mixture and then washing it down with more water. This mixing method, while just fine for other powders, is tricky with glucomannan and not recommended and only seems to work if the glucomannan powder is confined to the tongue only before mixing it quickly with the water using the tongue. Rather, glucomannan could be added to smoothies, juice or water in a blender for a probably better result. I am going to try the larch tree fiber next after I finish the glucomannan. A level teaspoon of the NOW brand 2 Billion acidophilous powder in combination with any good fiber is also great.

I use this to thicken fruit juices, gravies, stir-fry and any kind of sauce that is too thin. it thickens hot or cold. It adds no calories or carbs and has no flavor of its own. I don't know how anyone that tries to live a starch free life could get by without it. It takes so little to do it's thing that it ends up being very inexpensive. I just keep it in a fine shaker and sprinkle it on, which keeps it from clumping while you stir it in.

I have found this a wonderful product to benefit health and weight loss. The Konjac root has so many applications and I have no problem giving it a full 10/10 score. May you all be blessed by using it.

I really like this product. I learned about it from the book Trim Healthy Mama and have used it in alot of there recipes and it is amazing. And the best part is you don't need to us alot of it.

This stuff thickens pretty good. And its so good for you. Its a big bottle and will last me a while. I use it for cooking. Its a good price for the amount you get. I'm glad I found it here.

Love this product. Needed a low-carb thickener and this does a good job but may take quite a bit of whisking (or use a blender). A little goes a long way. Hot liquids thicken quicker than cold. May continue to thicken some as it sets.

Works great in my thm recipes. Quantity will last several months.

I have been using glucomannan for about a year now. It works as a great thickener for things like puddings and smoothies and even soups and gravies. It also does a great job of filling you up. I add just a tiny bit to drinks too, to make them feel creamy. This has been a great weight loss tool for me.

I was skeptical at first at how well just a little would thicken my smoothies. It does a really great job!

Used this in smoothies and to make gravy. Works well for both. Gravy is translucent in the same way gravy made with corn starch is--rather than opaque like when made with flour.

This is a good source for gluc.

I gave part of this to a friend, works great for her. I have IBS, seems to irritate my colon, so I can't use it.

I use this to thicken smoothies, sauces, gravies, etc. Love it.
