If the excesses of the holiday season have left you clamouring for the latest diet books and swearing off pasta for good then don’t despair!
A new range of pasta products made from an ancient Asian root vegetable means you can now have your pasta and eat it too!
Slendier has launched a delicious new range of pasta, noodles and rice style made from Asian food staple Konjac.
The Slendier Konjac Spaghetti and Slendier Konjac Angel Hair Pasta products are gluten-free, contain no fat, sugar, flour or eggs and are low in carbohydrates and good source of fibre, ideal for people looking to lose weight, for those with food intolerances, coeliac disease, diabetes or people simply keen to maintain a balanced healthy diet.
Now you can make all your favourite pasta dishes using Konjac-based Slendier spaghetti and angel hair pasta and it’s pre-cooked to make it extra quick and easy to prepare.
According to Scientific studies, the natural fibre in the Konjac plant keeps you full for longer. It slows the release of sugar into the bloodstream, helping to lower insulin and blood glucose levels, leaving you feeling fuller for longer periods of time. You’ll lose the urge to snack between meals!
And the good news keeps coming, Konjac may also helps lower blood pressure and cholesterol and slows glucose absorption.
Slendier sources the Konjac (pronounced con-jack) for its products from high-altitude regions of China where the Australian-based company is helping to create jobs in remote communities.
Slendier Konjac Spaghetti (RRP $4.99) and Slendier Konjac Angel Hair Pasta (RRP $4.99) are available from selected Countdown, Pak’n Save and New World supermarkets nationwide.
