   I’m on a keto (ketogenic) diet and did some research on thickening agents to use in place of corn starch or flour. I ordered this to make a recipe in my slow cooker for Mongolian Beef and it worked great! My husband couldn’t believe that the recipe didn’t have flour in it. It has no slimy mouth feel – and no taste whatsoever… it has a much higher thickening power than corn starch (I used 2 teaspoons of this stuff for a recipe that called for 1/4 cup of corn starch). My research said this could also be used in shakes/smoothies/coffee drinks to thicken things…and I did try it for that…and it did work….but it made the smoothies I made have a weird consistency so I am not sure that I like it for that. They weren’t bad…just had an odd thick but very light/airy consistency that I wasn’t going for. I think very good for stews, gravies and other sauces. I would definitely buy it again.

   As an added bonus this is often promoted as a nutritional supplement for weight loss and lowering cholesterol and is supposed to be good for diabetics. I am not using it for those things–but if that’s an added benefit, all the better!

   Als je dit toevoegt aan water zoals in de beschrijving staat krijg je gelatine. Niet te zuipen en vreselijk lastig uit de beker te krijgen. Beter koop je capsules

   This is definitely an appetite suppressant. Now it doesn’t make you feel stuffed, it makes you feel satisfied and allows you to easily make the decision to not eat. Could you physically eat? Probably. But the craving and desire too is basically non existent.

   I read every single review, good and bad, before purchase. The tips I found the most helpful
   – start slow, more is not better. Trust me! You will need to be near a toilet if you don’t.
   – if you mix it in 1-2 ounces of water and take it as a shot, then drink 10-12 more ounces of water you avoid a lot of the chaos in the bad reviews.
   – Water, Water, Water. All day. Not just when taking it or you will dry out your intestines and be constipated
   – someone mentioned a splash of acv in the water would prevent it from turning to gel so dang fast. They were accurate. It does buy you a few split seconds.
   -(TMI)if you stay hydrated you have the cleanest and most gentle poos ever!

   I take a shot glass of 1-2 oz, a slash of acv…like less than a cap full, and 1/2 teaspoon and down it like a shot. Then I gulp and gulp water.

   I’m not hungry. I don’t have headaches or jitters. I just feel…satiated. And I can think clear when I’m not thinking about food.

   Idk if it helps with weight loss directly. However, indirectly I’m sure it does. I work out and eat as clean as possible so I’m not solely dependent. But not constantly needing meals at a set time has to reduce weight cuz calories in calories out.

   Everyone is mad at how fast it gels but that’s literally why you are purchasing it. That’s what you want it to do!! That gel and expansion from the water you drink is what makes this work. Now I never even tried putting it in 8 oz cuz that didn’t make sense to me, but the method I described worked wonders. Just get everything out, set and ready and it’s a two min process.

   طعم سيئ لم استطع تققبله ، عند شربه تشعر في ثقل في المعدة وتشعر انك غير مرتاح الافضل ربما لانه بودرة ، ايضا تند وضعه في الماء بسرعةً يتكتل ربما يناسب البعض ولكن بالنسبة لي لم اشعر انني سوف استطيع تناوله بعد الان ربما الحبوب سوف تكون افضل هاذا رأي يمكن للبعض لا يشعرون بنفس الشيء

   The quality is good, its showing the characterstics.
   Though, a long term review maybe more helpful on effects such as weight loss.

   Glucomannan is recommended by medical authorities as top quality fiber to feed the probiotics in your gut and, ahem, it’s easy to see why. To be honest, not much comes out the other end. I’m trying to take it regularly twice a day. It does make a big difference if you take it once versus two or three times a day . And the difference in quality between something like Metamucil and glucomannan is pretty extreme .

   Mixed with water, you need to stir vigorously or it will form an incredibly thick jelly that needs to be spooned into your mouth. You can chug it as fast as possible before it has a chance to set.

   The powder has just the faintest hint of a fishy taste/smell. However, it’s trivially easy to hide. Honestly, I still have some Metamucil left, so I mix a cocktail to get that delicious Metamucil flavor. But chicken stock works so much better.

   Will it fix your diarrhea or constipation? Eventually. Glucomannan is soluble fiber. Insoluble fiber is better for regularity. However, it will feed the helpful probiotics in your gut and hopefully, they will destroy any bad bugs. THAT will fix your diarrhea/constipation.

   And did you know Shirataki noodles are also made of glucomannan? Nothing but glucomannan. It has no carbs, no calories, no gluten, just fiber. Also sold on Amazon : )

   (and your local Asian grocery store)

   Update: Recently I saw a doctor of functional medicine to find out what the heck is going on with my gut. We’ll find out when the tests come back.

   Meanwhile she straightened out my supplement regime. She threw out my junk fiber Metamucil but I was allowed to keep glucomannan. However she recommended PGX instead. PGX is a form of glucomannan which has been processed to preserve the fiber to the max. She also dumped my favorite probiotics, but kept Jarrow’s Saccharomyces boulardii . S boulardii is a probiotic that fights inflammation of the gut.

   I was stunned , didn’t she want more probiotic diversity to help strengthen the microbiome? Wasn’t it better to have lots and lots and lots of fiber?

   Apparently not . Taking too many probiotics isn’t helpful because the probiotics must fight it out in the gut with your already established probiotics so she eliminated the competition to favor S. boulardii which will heal the gut.

   What’s wrong with taking all kinds fiber? Lots of different fiber? Unfortunately, poorly processed fiber such as Metamucil, sure it supports your probiotics but it also feeds some seriously bad denizens of the gut.

   And that was it . Throwing out the junk did the trick . Three weeks after I took her advice my gut pain , cramping, gas, bloating, diarrhea, GERD is under control.

   So quality is the key. Buy the best fiber that you can afford. PGX if you can afford it or glucomannan. Get the right probiotic for the job. If you want to control inflammation Saccharomyces boulardii is the right probiotic and you won’t need any other probiotic.

   Healing the gut is a big story and here are some other helpful elements.

   Glutamine . 2 to 3 g daily is the therapeutic dose to heal the gut glutamine feeds the gut directly.

   Resistant starch : resistant starches are longchain starches that resist digestion. They are usually broken down by the probiotics in your gut . Some of the byproducts of resistant starch digestion are used to feed the gut directly and they reduce inflammation . Bob’s Red Mill unmodified potato starch is resistant starch. The therapeutic dose is 1 tablespoon taking up to three times daily.

   Collagen: collagen is required to heal the gut. You can find collagen either in bone broth or collagen powder.

   If your digestion is broken : gas, bloating, stomach aches, heartburn, cramps, diarrhea, GERD. You may need to support your digestion. You want to check with a physician before starting this because if you don’t need this stuff you could burn a hole in your stomach. HCL betaine and digestive enzymes .

   , you need to initiate protein synthesis. Healing is by definition the production of new proteins to replace those which are broken or missing. In order to initiate protein synthesis, you need to eat 30 g of protein in one sitting. That’s a lot of protein, five large eggs contains 30 g of protein for example. I tend to do this by eating 30 g in one meal. And then for my other meals that’s when I eat all my vegetables and fruit.

   If you plan to use this with cold water- expect it to turn massively thick if you take time to stir it at the serving size QUICK. Too thick to drink for my taste.
   Either keep it at a room temp or reduce the serving size and drink quickly without stirring.
   I have been starting to mix a partial portion of it with a generic Metamucil to get flavor and still have benefits. Differences between them. This gets THICK, gels QUICKLY, fills you up and makes it feel as if you have eaten more than you have and fills up space around it. Seems to possibly have probiotics naturally as well. Also seems to be better at keeping you ‘regular’. Metamucil does not get thick, has flavor, not nearly as filling.

    When mixed with water, it is tasteless. Getting used to it. I taste my blood glucose and the readings are better now before I took glucomannan powder.
