Yam is a rare nourishing food for women's beauty. In Dream of the Red Chamber, snacks made from yams appeared. In addition, traditional Chinese medicine believes that yam is sweet and flat in nature and enters the spleen, lung and kidney meridians. It is a commonly used product for medical treatment and diet therapy. Zhang Xichun, a modern physician, believes: "Yam medicine supplements the spleen and kidney. It can clear the upper part and solidify the lower part. It can stop defecation when it is mixed with urine." When choosing to use it, it is different for raw use and fried use. Raw yam can nourish the spleen and nourish the stomach, nourish the kidney and astringent essence, and nourish the lung and produce fluid. It is often used for thirst for deficiency heat, spleen deficiency, chronic diarrhea, kidney deficiency and seminal emission, excessive leucorrhea in women, and asthma and cough due to lung deficiency.
