What is organic konjac flour?
Organic Konjac Flour is a certified organic, non-GMO powder derived from the root of the Amorphophallus konjac plant. Rich in soluble dietary fiber (70-80% glucomannan), it absorbs up to 50x its weight in water, forming a viscous gel that supports satiety, digestive health, and sugar reduction. With 0 net carbs and 0 kcal per gram, it is a cornerstone ingredient for:
- Low-Carb Noodles: Shirataki noodles and gluten-free pasta.
- Plant-Based Foods: Binder in vegan meats and dairy alternatives.
- Functional Baking: Adds fiber to bread, cookies, and snacks without altering flavor.
Certified USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, and Kosher/Halal, our konjac flour is sustainably sourced from organic farms in Southeast Asia.
Building on this foundation, we also offer advanced konjac-derived ingredients to meet specialized needs:
- Organic Glucomannan: Purified konjac fiber (≥95% glucomannan) for high-viscosity applications like appetite-suppressing supplements and dairy thickeners.
- Organic Mannooligosaccharides (MOS): Prebiotic oligosaccharides selectively fermented by gut probiotics (e.g., Lactobacillus), ideal for synbiotic blends and functional beverages.
Our integrated production capabilities ensure consistent quality across all three formats, from raw konjac flour to premium purified derivatives.
