Without renouncing the dream weight

About Shileo

No matter how good salad, vegetables & Co. taste, who wants to do without his favourite side dishes noodles & rice? That's also what the two startups Nerds Cyrille & Anja thought and founded Shileo in 2017 - the noodles & the 'rice' with which no guilty conscience comes up.

This is made possible by Amorphophallus konjac short konjac (Konjak in German), the main ingredient of their products. A visually admittedly somewhat out of shape Asian tuber, which scores highly in terms of nutritional value. Thus the Shileo Konjak noodles produced from the low-calorie and low-carbohydrate flour of the Konjak root contain just as many calories as 100g of a zucchini. The Shileo Konjak rice just half the calories of conventional rice, with not even 2g of carbohydrates per 100g. This makes Shileo Konjak noodles & rice the ideal side dish alternative for athletes, diabetics and anyone who wants to lose a few kilos.

Usually presented in a fishy smelling brine, Shileo is one of the first suppliers on the European market to offer all Konjak products from Konjak noodles to Konjak rice exclusively dried.

And it gets even better: Studies conducted by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), for example, have shown that konjac has a supportive effect on weight loss*. This effect is due to the dietary fibre konjac glucomannan, which is naturally contained in the flour of the konjac root and which, due to its enormous swelling behaviour, produces a rapid saturation effect. In terms of taste, Konjak noodles are similar to rice or glass noodles, making them particularly suitable for Asian dishes. The neutral tasting Konjak rice, on the other hand, can be easily processed into both sweet and savoury dishes such as low-carb rice pudding, low-carb risotto and low-carb sushi.
