10 Day Diet Miracle Noodle Diet
Did you know that Miracle Noodles can help you to easily lose weight as well as provide a large part of dietary fiber?
This food has been used in Asia for the past 2000 years, and is known as Konyaku in Japan, Gonyak in Korea and Ju Ruo in Chinese and colloquially known as konjak, konjaku, devil's tongue, voodoo lily, snake palm, or elephant yam. You may have heard of them as "Shirataki Noodles" which means white waterfall because of the appearance of the noodles when you take them out of the bag. They are a pasta and noodle substitute, but with zero calories, zero carbohydrates, gluten free, wheat free, and 5 times the cholesterol cutting power of oatmeal - and they are vegan!
Miracle Noodles are made from the root of the Konjac-Mannan tuber. The root is sliced extremely thinly, then dried. The dried chips are converted to powder, making Konjac flour which can be used for thickening sauces or making vegan gelatin. The flour is mixed with other ingredients to make into pasta and noodles.
You can substitute Miracle Noodles for any pasta or regular noodles in your favorite dishes and convert it to a zero-carb or very low-carb dish. Imagine eating spaghetti in tomato sauce with ZERO carbs. Miracle Noodles can be used as a substitute for many dishes because it comes in many forms. Miracle Noodles come in spaghetti, rigatoni, vermicelli (angel hair), pearls (like tapioca) Orzo, Penne Mini Ring, and Black Shirataki for your noodle soup dishes or main courses.
Miracle Noodles are perfect for dieters because when they get into your stomach they swell up (they can absorb 200 times their weight in water) making you feel full for much longer than when eating regular pasta or rice dishes. Miracle noodles are made from soluble fiber which causes your blood glucose to drop at a very slow rate, which is what helps keep you feeling full. Miracle noodles are a perfect food for those suffering with diabetes, because they are CARB-FREE and since they stay in your stomach longer they delay glucose absorption, and lower the Glycemic Index. They are also a great choice for People with high cholesterol levels because they absorb cholesterol better than oatmeal. Furthermore, they can prevent cancer because they create good bacteria in your intestinal flora associated with a reduction in pro-cancerous nitrosamines (proteins).
If you are ready to take charge of your weight loss for once and for all, substitute Miracle Noodles in all your pasta and noodle dishes and you will be well on your way to your weight loss goal.

10 Day Miracle Noodle Diet
Average weight loss is 8lbs in 10 days!
I lost 9 lbs in the first 10 days, then carried on steadily losing weight at around 4 lbs a week. You shouldn't really try to lose weight faster than that, as it can lead to sagging skin. If you find you are losing weight faster, eat another 100 to 200 calories with your free meal.
This might not look like much food, but do not worry. You are receiving plenty of vitamins and minerals from the fresh fruits, salads and vegetables and the miracle noodles keep you feeling full the whole day.
You can interchange the breakfasts, or swap one noodle recipe for another if you wish - this makes the diet so easy as you just eat the meals you prefer! Just make sure you only eat the free meals at the stated times, and always eat the salad with it. You need it for the nutrients it provides and it will speed up your weight loss. When I have skipped the salad my weight loss slows.
