Magilim contains Konjac Glucomannan extracted from the root of elephant yam which is the active ingredient in this herbal medicine. Konjac glucomannan is a natural water soluble dietary fibre which has its significance in weight management in the Traditional Chinese Medicine process for over 2000 years in the history of ancient China. Konjac glucomannan comprises 40% of the dry weight of the elephant yam which has an exceptional ability to absorb water and is one of the most viscous dietary fibres. When small amount of glucomanna is ingested, it turns into a soft-gel substance that is able to expand up to fifty times its weight causing a feeling of fullness, which prevents excessive eating.This unique ingredient helps with delaying stomach emptiness and triggering satiety. It is an ideal option for weight control and body detoxification.
