NSI Glucomannan -- 2,000 mg per serving - 180 Capsules

NSI Glucomannan -- 2,000 mg per serving - 180 Capsules

A plant-based, calorie-free dietary fiber that may promote healthier blood sugar. May also benefit cholesterol and colon/digestive health. How does NSI® Glucomannan work? Glucomannan is a gentle and effective natural fiber that promotes healthy colon function. Derived from the konjac root, glucomannan is a water-soluble dietary fiber considered to be a "bulk-forming laxative." This means it may help you produce stools that are easier to pass, with less straining on your system. Glucomannan may also promote healthier cholesterol and support healthy blood sugar levels. NSI® Glucomannan is better because it:. Comes in easy-to-swallow, quick absorption capsules. Is a superior value when compared to other brands, but you still receive a potent 2,000 mg per serving. Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

Good stuff!, May 18, 2007
By msdrgnldy

"Any one with "back end" problems will like this product -as well as anyone who is dieting.
This stuff holds water like no tomorrow and will create bulk in your stomach -helping you to feel full. It also pushes what you do eat through your system which helps you retain fewer calories.

By liveclean from riverside, ca

"I've been taking this and the tonalin xl for weight loss. I have lost about 2 pounds over 1 month. The glucomann really works in term of making me feel full. I don't feel like eating a lot of time and get full easily. I haven't lost much but I'm not gaining either which is good. Because normally my weight keeps climbing up weekly...monthly.."

Helps with Portion Control, September 6, 2009
By Anonymous from salem, ma

"I bought this product because I want to try to start eating less. I'd like to lose about ten pounds, but I have trouble with overeating and food cravings. I eat pretty healthy foods. Mostly vegan diet ( I eat fish, and obviously these pills aren't vegan). But I have never controlled my portion sizes and I never pay attention to serving sizes. And I always feel hungry. I take 3 pills at least 30 minutes before I plan to eat. They really do help you feel less hungry. This helps with portion control. I use to eat more than 2x more than i should in one sitting. Now, I can eat the recommended portion sizes ( for example: 1 plain veggie burger (no bread or anything), 1 cup brown rice, maybe 2 cups or less of veggies and water) and I actually feel full long before I can finish it. I honestly feel like i've eaten too much just eating regular food portions. And after eating I have no desire for dessert. I also eat more slowly because I don't feel like I'm starving at mealtimes. This has really curbed my food cravings. Eventually, I think your body gets used to eating less and you will naturally feel full not eating as much, and this has been a good tool for helping to get started with that. The only thing I don't like about this product is the smell. The smell of the capsules makes me gag, and it's difficult for me to swallow them. I have to hold my nose when I take them. I may switch to nature made vegetarian glucommannan capsules. Haven't had any bathroom issues so far; it's been a week."

Works well at lower doses, August 11, 2009
By chihuahualover from PA

"I tried this as recommended and took 3 capsules. What a disaster. I read the reviews again that others submitted and decided to give it a try again. Again a disaster. I didn't want to give up on it however and I tried taking just 1 capsule. In my case, this worked so much better. I will continue to use at this lower dose and see if it is effective."

"Really like this product. It has helped control my eating. I take two in the morning and by lunch time I am still not hungry. If I take two more in the afternoon I do have trouble with bloating and gas so beware of that. But overall-really like it!!!!"

Really Works!, June 29, 2009
By Boomerang from Arkansas

"I've tried everything to curb my over-eating habit. This is the only thing that worked well enough to actually make a difference. I take 2-3 capsules with a large glass of water before a meal. It creates a feeling of fullness and satisfaction. I can eat a peanut butter and jelly (sugar free) sandwich for lunch and not get hungry for hours! One word sums up the action of this product: satiety. As far as side effects go, I noticed I sometimes develop a headache after taking this. I don't know if it's from the product but I suspect it may be. I have noticed a bit of constipation, but not severe enough to require drastic measures. Nothing that a little prune juice couldn't take care of!~ Five Star Product!"

Helps maintain stable blood sugar, May 18, 2009
By bullfrog69 from Atlanta

"I eat lean and multiple times a day. This Glucomannan helps keep my stomach from emptying as quickly and helps stabilize my blood sugar for longer periods of time. I take it about 15 min before my meal to enable the fiber to begin the gel process in my stomach to help slow the stomach emptying process. It works great! I can usually go about 4 hrs between meals. That is up from eating every 2 hrs."

sounded good, but..., May 6, 2009
By Niniel from MidAdlantic

"I really wanted this to work. I read almost all the reviews, and had high hopes. However, despite sticking it out for two weeks, I had constant diarrhea. I finally had to stop taking it. My system is too sensitive for this product. If you are constipated, try Rainbow Light's "Everyday Fiber System." Three weeks and it is the best things I have tried!"

Just not the product for me, May 1, 2009
By sharkladyangie from Savannah, GA

"This product was just not for me. I started out slowly, as recommended, with only 1/2 a capsule a day and tried to work my way up to 2 capsules a day. After having 1/2 a capsule with breakfast and 1/2 a capsule with lunch, the bloating and cramping were almost unbearable. My body just did not like this product. Everyone's body is different. It may work like a charm for someone else."
