Konjac Sponge Skin Benefits

The Konjac plant Amorphophallus Konjac is cultivated in parts of China, Japan and Indonesia. The Japanese culture has been using Konjac as food and medicine for over 1,500 years. The sponges are made from the porous root vegetable from the plant by breaking it down into fibres and then set into a dome-shape.

We take a look at the konjac sponge skin benefits:
