[Tina and Friends Weight Loss Support Group] Health Benefits of Glucomannan

Christina Nicole posted in Tina and Friends Weight Loss Support Group .       Christina Nicole August 31 at 1:29am   Health Benefits of Glucomannan #1- Regularity-The most common reason for the use of glucomannan fiber is to promote regularity. It has proven to be safe and effective for this purpose. The most common reason for chronic constipation is poor diet, so it makes sense that a dietary supplement can be a good option for most people. Harsh stimulant laxitives are usually not necessary. #2- Cholesterol-Glucomannan fiber lowers cholesterol by binding up excess bile acids and then excreating them from the body. It also may slow the absorption of cholesterol in some foods. #3- Type 2 Diabetes-Glucomannan is a soluble fiber, when it is mixed with water it forms a gel. This gel absorbs sugar and starches which slows the bodies digestion of these carbohydrates. This helps to reduce blood sugar spikes. Diabetics have long been recommended to eat foods high in soluble fiber, these foods are referred to as having a low "Glycemic Index." #4- Weight Loss-This is not to say that glucomannan is the next "miracle diet food." But there several glucomannan weight loss studies that have produced impressive results, and the reasons for this are quite simple. Fiber is bulk, it takes up space in the digestive tract and contributes to a sense of fullness. And since it controls blood sugar spikes, this controls insulin levels and reduces appetite. #5- Promotes Probiotic Bacteria-Surely by now you've heard about the benefits of probiotics. Maybe you've heard the term "prebiotic" lately. Glucomannan is a prebiotic fiber. All prebiotics are is simply a soluble fiber supplement. Please don't let them add to much mysticism to the subject, it's really quite simple. **So what do prebiotics do? Pr0biotics such as glucomannan act as a natural food source for our natural prebiotic bacteria. While a prebiotic supplement is always a good idea, why not help them multiply of their own. These "good bugs" are important because they prevent a state known as dsybiosis. Dysbiosis is a state where our healthy intestinal organisms are compromised and then harmful organisms such as candida can move in. **Why Glucomannan is Better than Psyllium? The main reason why glucomannan is better than psyllium is because it is better tolerated by most people. Psyllium can cause abdominal pain and also allergic reactions though rare. And while it's not related to wheat and contains no gluten, it is derived from a grain which is a problem for some people.
