Sepertimana yang diketahui umum Konjac sudah dimakan semenjak 2000 tahun dahulu khususnya di negara China, Korea dan Jepun. Apa yang secara tradisional diamalkan kini mendapat perhatian saintis seluruh dunia. Kurus the Konjac Food merupakan usaha kami membawa kembali kebaikan asia untuk orang asia, dan alhamdulillah kami mendapat sokongan dari segenap disiplin professional.
Sebelum itu, Es & Ef ingin mengucapkan jutaan terima kasih kepada pakar diet, pakar masakan, pakar perubatan dan juga para pengkaji sains di seluruh dunia atas usaha murni mereka mengkaji kebaikan konjac yang mengandungi fiber glucomannan.
