The authors studied the behavior of body weight, blood glucose,
total serum cholesterol, and hunger and satiety sensation in
30 patients treated for 60 days with a 1.200 kcal (5040 kj)
diet plus either placebo or glucomannane. All the variables
considered show that the low-calorie diet plus glucomannane
is more effective than the low-calorie diet alone.
