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

From: abri1973 at wp.pl (Marek Argent) on 2007.10.05 at 23:45:13(16405) 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 Marek +More ----- Original Message ----- From: Windy Aubrey To: Discussion of aroids Sent: Friday, October 05, 2007 11:43 PM 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?
