Amorphophallus konjac, commonly known as Konjac, is a plant native to Asia, particularly found in countries like Japan, China, and Indonesia. It belongs to the Araceae family and is recognized for its large, umbrella-like leaves and a distinctive flower that resembles a spadix. The plant is cultivated primarily for its corm, which is a bulb-like structure underground. The corm of Konjac is rich in glucomannan, a soluble dietary fiber that is often used as a food additive and in health supplements. It is popular in various culinary applications, especially in Asian cuisine, where it is made into products like konjac noodles and konjac jelly. Additionally, Konjac is valued for its potential health benefits, including weight management and digestive health.
