Re: Lipozene....A product made from from Amorphophallis konjac

Hello Windy et al.,
 
I think that Lipozene is a commercial name for glucomannan, the substance that is within the tubers of Amorphophallus konjac.
In my Araceum (www.araceum.prv.pl) I have a dictionary of terms concerning to aroids,
but now it is only in Polish language, because I find it too hard to translate this vocabulary into English.
However if you'd like to see - here it is: http://www.wschowa.com/abrimaal/araceum/slownik/slownik.htm
And here is an info about medicals produced from Am. konjac (sadly in Polish, too): http://www.wschowa.com/abrimaal/araceum/slownik/aplefit.htm

Subject: [Aroid-l] Lipozene....A product made from from Amorphophallis konjac

Hi Everyone,
 
I happened to catch a commercial on TV last night that was another gimmicky weight loss pill touted to cause fat reduction.
I looked up from my lap-top in time to catch the image on the TV zoom into to the label on the bottle.  I was surprised, and almost thought I was imagining what I saw, but there it was Lipozene(Amorphophallis konjac) 1500mg per dose. 
 
Ha, I thought the Amorphophallis konjac tubers were fed to pigs in Asia to fatten them up?
