Chinese yam

Dioscorea opposita (Dioscoreaspp.) is a vine plant of Dioscorea in Dioscoreaceae, commonly known as Dioscorea opposita. Its edible part is underground tuber (basidium), which is rich in nutrients. The tuber is rich in amino acids, protein, starch, mucilage, allantoin, choline, cellulose, vitamins A, B 1, B2, C, etc. The tuber of yam has been used for medicine since ancient times, and Shennong Herbal Classic is listed as the top grade. It is flat, cool and moist, sweet and non-toxic. It can strengthen the spleen and stomach, tonify the lung and kidney, and mainly treat diarrhea, chronic dysentery, thirst, fatigue, cough, nocturnal emission and frequent urination. It is used by the people as a nourishing and strengthening medicine, and it also has expectorant effect. The traditional famous prescriptions are Liuwei Pill, Bawei Pill and Shenling Baizhu Powder. In addition to the above functions, yam is a healthy vegetable with excellent appetite because of its strong nature and no serious pests and diseases. Yam varieties can be roughly divided into two categories. One is lump yam, which is distributed in the tropics and subtropics, with large potato shape, high yield and fast growth. The other is long yam, which is originally distributed in temperate regions such as Chinese mainland and Japan. Its stems are slender and round, leaves are long and narrow, and its tubers are shaped like long sticks. Its quality is extremely excellent, and its output is lower than that of block yam. It is often used as a strong tonic in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, and its price is very high.
