cliff notes:
wonderful for diabetes and weight control.

high in the fiber glucomannan, excellent for blood sugar.
In fact, glucomannan has been shown to cause weight loss in numerous studies.



move through the digestive system very slowly, which helps you feel full and delays nutrient absorption into the bloodstream.

virtually no junk carbs. (compare to most spaghetti and other noodles)

Made from the substance, the corm of the konnyaku or konjac plant, also known as the Devil's Tongue plant.
Shirataki is also known as konnyaku noodles. Shirataki means "white waterfall".

Also a black noodle. Sold at among other places, WallyMart:

Since a typical serving of shirataki noodles contains about 1–3 grams of glucomannan, it’s essentially a calorie-free, carb-free food.
