Have you tried Glucomannan?
I am looking to give it a shot on my cut
Quote:
When you take a glucomannan supplement, the powder has the ability to almost instantly turn liquid into a thick gel.
Taking a glucomannan supplement will help slow the release of food from your stomach and through your GI track by greatly increasing the food's viscosity.
This is a fat loss dieting dream. Because the glucomannan decreases the rate in which food leaves your stomach, your stomach will remain fuller longer(1) and on less food. This means that you won't be so miserable when eating less.
Because glucomannan is slowing the rate in which food leaves your stomach, this means that it's also slowing the rate in which carbohydrates leave your stomach and thus the rate in which they enter your blood stream. Better blood sugar control means faster fat loss and better health.
That sounds all well and good, right? But what does the research say about glucomannan? Preliminary data from a study conducted in diabetics showed the 1 gram of glucomannan given 30 minutes before an Oral Glucose Tolerance test (drinking 75g sugar beverage and then measuring blood sugar levels for 2 hours) yielded a significant blunting effect on blood sugar levels (3% vs. 12% increase in blood sugar levels between hours 1-2).
As you may have expected, studies have shown that the incorporation of glucomannan into a weight loss diet does elicit a greater amount of weight loss(1-4), but it should be noted that in some cases the subjects weren't given instructions to restrict their calories.(4)
