    There is a quantity problem here. For example, the amount of Chinese yam in Liuwei Dihuang Decoction is limited, which is only a few dollars. If diabetic patients want to eat Chinese yam as food, it will have a certain effect on blood sugar. Chinese yam is a kind of rhizome food with high starch content, and over-eating can cause blood sugar to rise. In addition, patients with peptic ulcer and cirrhosis should use steaming, stewing and other cooking methods, avoid fried and vinegar. When people with bad gastrointestinal tracts take yam, do not take alkaline drugs such as baking soda tablets at the same time, so as to prevent the baking soda from invalidating the amylase in yam.
