How Does PROPOL Makes me Feel Full and lose weight?

Propol contains glucomannan (Konjac) in the correct quantities approved by EFSA for weight loss. After intake of PROPOL the glucomannan immediately starts working in your stomach and swells up to 50 times forming into a gel. The stomach reacts to this gel solution in the same way it would to food, which delays gastric emptying thus creating feeling of fullness.( Gastric emptying refers to the speed at which food and drink leaves the stomach).

Food is retained in the stomach to allow digestion to take place, where as fluid leaves the stomach almost immediately.

This is why a glass of water will not satisfy us in the same way as food will. It is the delay in gastric emptying that makes us feel full and reduces food intake of subsequent meal.
