Glucomannan is a soluble, bulk-forming fibre derived from the Konjac Root (Amorphophallus konjac) that can help to maintain intestinal regularity. Glucomannan may also help to maintain serum lipid levels already within the healthy range. In addition, by promoting satiety (feeling of fullness), Glucomannan can be a convenient addition to a weight management plan that includes a healthy diet and exercise program.
Glucomannan is a dietary fibre and works in the intestines by absorbing water to form a bulky fibre. This helps slow the absorption of sugar and cholesterol from the gut, helping to regulate cholesterol and sugar levels plus promoting a feeling of satiety. Therefore enabling you to feel full for a longer period, and help keep cravings suppressed and hunger controlled.

What is Glycine?
Glycine is the smallest and simplest amino acid, making it versatile for use in a wide range of functions. Glycine is necessary for the production of glutathione, DNA, creatine, bile, haemoglobin, and most proteins.

Glycine also functions as a calming neurotransmitter in the brain, where it facilitates nerve impulses and is important for the maintenance of healthy sleep patterns. - Read more
What is Glycine?
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid and has the simplest structure of all amino acids, allowing it to fit easily within protein chains and make space for structurally larger amino acids. This feature makes it very important for specific bodily functions. Glycine is also a precursor of creatine, which is used to construct DNA and RNA. And it supports glycogen storage, thereby making more glucose available for energy production. The amino acid glycine is non-chiral and only has one form without a D- or L- designation. - Buy product
What is Inulin?
Inulin, a fructooligosaccharide (FOS), is a soluble prebiotic fibre that is resistant to digestion and reaches the large intestine essentially intact. Intestinal probiotic bacteria consume Inulin and in turn, produce the short-chain fatty acids that nourish the cells lining the colon. Inulin thus helps to maintain intestinal health and function. Inulin has a pleasant flavour that adds a mild sweetness to foods and drinks, but has a very low glycemic index and will not negatively impact serum glucose levels.
