 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.
