Can yam skin be eaten? What effects will it have on the body?

I believe many people have never eaten yam skin. Usually, when we eat yam, we will cut off the outer layer of skin because the yam skin will cause allergies after contact with the skin. In fact, research has found that yam skin can be used and has different effects. It can replenish kidney yang deficiency and treat physical weakness. The most important thing is that it can improve one's own immune function, so yam skin is edible.

Because the medicinal value of yam itself is very rich, it can help the human body replenish nutrition. At the same time, yam is also rich in trace elements, which can help the body replenish nutrition, promote the absorption of other nutrients, protect the stomach and intestines, and relieve the symptoms of indigestion. Therefore, yam skin also has the same effect, and yam skin also has the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying the kidney. For patients with weak bodies, yam skin can help alleviate the condition and improve physical fitness.
