What Are Konjac Flour Noodles?

Before some of our customers try our Miracle Noodles, they ask us what the noodles are made from and how they can possibly contain so few calories. The answer to both questions is: konjac flour.

Konjac flour noodles come in several varieties and are shaped from from the root of the konnyaku imo plant, which is a wild-yam like plant native to Asia. The root of the plant contains a lot of water and fiber. The vegetable flour from this plant is called konjac flour.

These konjac flour noodles have been eaten for centuries. And konjac flour itself has been used for over 1000 years to rid the body of impurities. Our customers use konjac flour noodles for weight management, blood sugar level improvement, better cholesterol levels and decreased insulin sensitivity.

These positive health benefits of konjac flour, in fact, have been proven by modern scientific studies.

Our konjac flour noodles have a very similar texture to regular wheat pasta. But the main difference between konjac flour noodles and wheat pasta is the amount of calories and carbohydrates. Konjac flour noodles are very low in calories and carbohydrates. But regular wheat pasta contains about 250 calories per serving and almost 50 grams of carbohydrates.

Konjac flour noodles only contain one other main ingredient, besides the flour: purified water. (There’s also a tiny amount of calcium hydroxide, a natural ingredient, which is used to give the noodles texture.)


Some of our most popular styles of konjac flour noodles are:

  • Angel Hair 
  • Fettuccini
  • Ziti
