Konjac

PurePasta est fait du superaliment KONJAC d’origine asiatique. Elle est fait de la racine konjac comestible. Pour fabriquer ce produit, une farine sans gluten est préparée et ensuite, cette farine est transformée de la façon requise. Le grand avantage est le glucomannane, une fibre diététique soluble et fermentable en eau.

? Le konjac aide à contrôler le taux de sucre dans le sang et peut réduire le cholestérol et améliorer le métabolisme. Pour sa teneur en fibres, il aide à promouvoir les mouvements intestinaux et à maintenir un côlon sain. Grâce à sa substance fibreuse, il est possible de satisfaire notre appétit rapidement. Le konjac est idéal pour le déjeuner ou ledîner puisqu’il est faible en calories mais nous donne une sensation de satiété. Il permet de maintenir un niveau d’énergie constant et de ne pas avoir sommeil ou faim vite.
