In 2007, Enza Giardina, Australian Naturopath, Herbalist, and author, discovered the remarkable benefits of konjac (shirataki) noodles—a traditional food enjoyed throughout Japan and China for over 1,400 years.

Made from the Konjac plant, these unique noodles consist of 97% water and 3% soluble fibre (glucomannan), with a small amount of natural calcium to help maintain their shape. Naturally low in calories and carbohydrates, they offered a healthier alternative to conventional noodles and pasta.

Recognising the potential health benefits for her patients, Enza, together with the support of her family, founded ZERO Noodles in 2011 to introduce authentic konjac products to Australia and New Zealand.

The response was overwhelming. ZERO Noodles quickly earned the trust of Australian Naturopaths, Doctors and Dietitians, and was featured in leading health publications including Health & Wellbeing, Living Now, InnerSelf and Nexus. What began with our original Konjac Noodles has grown into a broader range of innovative, health-focused products.

Today, ZERO proudly offers an expanding range that includes our certified organic Konjac Noodles, Low Carb Rice, High Protein Rice, and soon, our High Protein Noodles. Every product is developed with the same commitment to quality, nutrition and great taste—helping people enjoy healthier versions of the foods they love without compromise.

Whether you're reducing carbohydrates, increasing protein, managing blood sugar, following a gluten-free lifestyle, or simply making healthier choices, ZERO provides delicious, convenient foods that fit your lifestyle.
