Nutricost Glucomannan Powder 500 Grams - Gluten Free & Non-GMO Supplement

I had been taking Glucomannan in capsules to help suppress appetite. I found that it worked well, but I got tired of swallowing the capsules. Also, the capsules tell you to be sure to take with a lot of water. There is a danger of choking if the capsule melts and the Glucomannon starts to swell while it is still in the throat. So there is always the worry about that. That is why I looked for a powder form. This seems to do the trick. I take it dissolved in water, but I think I'll try it with a small bit go yogurt. It doesn't have a taste, although it gets a little slimy when dissolved in water. That's why I'm thinking a little yogurt or cottage cheese or something else soft might be a better carrier for palatability.

I've recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and I'm having to get creative about how to continue eating some of my favorite meals. Sauces and gravies are one of the biggest hurdles because using regular flour, or corn starch are big no-no's on my new diet. This stuff works, really well, thickens my sauces and gravies while adding no sugar carbs. Has no discernable taste, so what I end up with is a nice thick sauce that tastes as good or better as my previous recipes! The price tag for me was scary, but when I realized that I only use a teaspoon at a time, this stuff is going to last a long long time!
