Konjac has been a household name in Japan since it has been used in many traditional Japanese foods for more than 2 thousand years ago.

Konjac flour is a hydrocolloidal polysaccharide obtained from the tubers of various species of Amorphophallus Konjac. Being a glucomannan, it is not only an excellent source of dietary fiber but it is also 100% natural and contains no calories.

The FDA has classified konjac flour as “Generally Recognised As Safe”
– “GRAS” material when used as an ingredient in formulated foods
(CFR Title 21 § 170.30) and the EC has also released it as a food additive under E425.
