Ingredients explained
Glucomannan (from konjac root)
Glucomannan is a soluble, viscous fiber that absorbs water to form a gel in the gut, which may slow gastric emptying, support feelings of fullness, and help promote regular bowel movements.

Do not use if you have a history of esophageal narrowing or swallowing difficulties. Consult a physician if you are pregnant or nursing, taking medications, or have a medical condition.
Who should be cautious: People with swallowing difficulties or a history of esophageal narrowing. Individuals with gastrointestinal strictures or motility concerns.
