The fresh Konjac tubers contain an average of Protein:1.08%, Ash:0.8%, Glucomannan:6.25-6.45 %, Moisture:78-82%.
Glucomannan is a water-soluble dietary fiber that is derived from konjac root (Amorphophallus konjac). It is a high molecular weight polysacch-aride consisting primarily of mannose and glucose sugar. Glucomannan can not only absorb up to 200 times its weight in water but also create a highly viscous gel from 20,000 to 40,000 cp and form a reversible or a thermo-non-reversible gel. |
