Best Naturals 2 Pack Konjac Glucomannan Root 1 Pound - 2000 mg per Serving - (Total 2 Pound)

Great for additional fiber. Don't use in liquid because it gets clumpy. Best to mix into food. I mix into my morning oatmeal. Easy on the stomach. Great priced seems like good quality and an additional fiber source.

This is the best thickener if you are looking for clean ingredients and want something low carb that won’t spike your blood sugar. It is the perfect alternative to flour or cornstarch! I use it to thicken sauces and protein shakes! There is no flavor so you can add it to anything you want to make it thicker. I use about two to three Tablespoons per crockpot of soup. Add slowly and stir well. Then let it do its thing!

Excellent supplement

Does not readily dissolve! Had previously taken as a capsule to aid diet. Thought more economical to use as a loose powder. Added 1/2 tsp to 12 oz of water, 4 oz more than instructions. Did not dissolve using a spoon. Grabbed a small whisk. Clumped, did not dissolve. Grabbed machine whisk. After a minute or so , undissolved pieces still swirled around. Would say it is not highly soluble. Maybe all the time the stuff in the capsules was also did not dissolve. Really aggravating! Tried whisking again. Bunch of little pieces, some as large as 1/4" long. Tried mashing the pieces with a spoon against the glass, just squished away. HOWEVER, because of the benefits of Konjac, decided to add the powder to my morning smoothie, which I make in a blender. Dissolved and actually made the texture very pleasant. Will also use as a thickener for sauces. Minus a star because the instruction to dissolve in water does not work for me.

I've ordered this previously and, just as with my current order, I have never had an issue. Price point for 2 canisters aligns with value. Quality is excellent. I use Konjac root in my daily smoothies for fiber intake. It blends perfectly, has no taste, makes them a little thicker and more shake-like, and is a great source of dietary fiber. Never had a complaint at all. Will purchase again and again.

2 main issues: this does powder not dissolve well at all, regardless of how well you stir or using double the recommended volume of fluid. Virtually unusable. So then, it becomes a bad use of money. It’s going straight into the disposal bin. Second, I got very sick after drinking it; I have celiac, and this is one of two things I’ve narrowed down to as a possible offender if it has cross contamination. So, definitely poor solubility and perhaps not entirely celiac disease friendly.

I can’t tolerate gluten, or xanthan gum, which is unfortunate as many gluten-free recipes call for xanthan gum as a gluten substitute. Konjac to the rescue! It’s the perfect substitute for xanthan gum. I just substitute it 1:1 by weight for whatever xanthan gum the recipe calls for. My baked goods always turn out delicious, enjoyed even by people who can eat gluten. I particularly recommend recipes by The Loopy Whisk. Her cinnamon rolls are fabulous.

Great thickener for keto gravy and soup.
