so is konjac noodles okay on keto well another name for konjac noodles would be miracle noodles or shirataki noodles now this is really popular in asia japan and china but it's made its way over to the us and uh it's totally keto friendly 97 of it is water it's like this gel that swells up and three percent is fiber and yes fiber is a carbohydrate but it doesn't have any effect on insulin because it's non-digestible your microbes will live on it the type of fiber is called glucomannan and there's some interesting effects of this fiber
it can act as a detox it can help with weight loss there's several studies and also it can help loosen mucus the thing is when you consume these noodles first of all the flavor is flavorless there's like no flavor so you have to add some things to it it's not the same texture as the regular pasta noodle unfortunately but it's similar okay and the other point is that you may get really thirsty when you consume this because it's going to swell up with water so you just want to drink some more water it'll hold like
50 times its weight in water it decreases hunger because it decreases this hormone ghrelin okay that has to do with hunger it also can help stabilize your blood sugars plus the fiber being digested by the microbes helps to increase certain small chain fatty acids that help your blood sugars as well it can also help constipation but most people consume just a small amount so they're not going to notice that unless you consume like like huge huge amounts again it has no calories because it's a fiber so you don't have to worry about it affecting your
