Amorphophallus konjac (aka Konjac) is a perennial herb that grows in subtropical and tropical zones such as Japan, China and Korea. Konjac plants contain Konjac glucomannan (KGM), which has numerous health benefits, and is often used in weight loss supplements. Glucomannan is also used to thicken and add texture to foods. In skin care, it helps to inhibit the growth of acne-causing bacteria, has antioxidant properties and balances the skin’s pH levels, improving the appearance of your skin.<\/p>\n
