Yam porridge

Yam porridge

Dioscorea porridge is also called yam porridge. You can imagine how delicious this porridge tastes. Let’s learn about it together.

Yam porridge

White in color, it enters the lungs, sweet in taste, it enters the spleen, and thick liquid benefits the kidneys. It can nourish the blood vessels, consolidate qi, calm cough and asthma, strengthen the will and nourish the spirit. It is mild in nature and can be taken regularly and frequently. It is best to boil the juice and drink it raw, and it should not be fried, because it contains a lot of protein. If it is fried, the protein will burn and become ineffective. If it is made into pills or powder, it can be rolled into small pieces and steamed before use (after the first ingredient of the Chinese yam drink in the medical prescription chapter, there are several cases of curing with yam, which you can refer to).

Introduction to the knowledge of yam porridge

[Attached case] The mother of Fakuwan×× has suffered from phlegm, wheezing and coughing since she was over 30 years old. She has been taking medicine for 30 years but nothing has worked. The older she got, the worse her condition became. In the spring of 1921, she also had fever, dry throat, sweating on the head, and loss of appetite. She invited a doctor to see her, who said that it was due to excessive phlegm and fire. She gave her ginseng lung-clearing soup with raw earth and moutan bark, but it was not only ineffective, but also caused her to have a fever like fire and diarrhea, which threatened to last forever. Later, she suddenly saw a Chinese yam drink in Zhongzhong Canxi Lu, so she used 4 liang of raw Chinese yam and 3 qian of Scrophularia, boiled a large bowl of soup, and took it slowly and warm several times. The effect was seen after one dose, and the disease was half cured after three doses. She then changed to using 1 liang of raw Chinese yam powder, boiled it into porridge and took it twice a day, taking appetizers occasionally. After more than ten days, she was cured and her old illness was greatly alleviated. It is estimated that long-term use of old illnesses can also be eradicated. Also: Wan××'s wife had diarrhea for several years and was cured by taking yam porridge.
