The fiber
which satiates without calories !
One of the major
ingredients in the Japanese cuisine is a special soluble fiber
called Konjac. The plant from the root of which this substance
with its extraordinary capacity of moisture expansion is
extracted, is called Amorphophallus konjac, or Konjac. Konjac-roots
are planted in cavernous soil, removed from the earth in August,
stored in a dry environment and replanted in March. Only after
this process has been repeated in 4 cycles will the roots be
ground and processed into edibles. Konjac flour is the food with
the highest known viscosity. i.e. it is small in volume but high
in weight. This leads to enormous swelling properties. Konjac
flour absorbs large amounts of water and must, therefore, be
consumed with a large amounts of liquid. The particularity
pertaining thereto is that in this pure state it practically has
no calories. Other foods ingested with Konjac flour,
simultaneously or a bit later, will adhere to the mash in the
stomach for quite some time, leading to an increased feeling of
satiation.
A sheath of Konjac flour mash will
remain around other foods even in the intestine.
This causes an increase of the stool weight and accelerates
excretion. Fibers are thus beneficial to the digestion.
