In Taoist medicine, Chinese yam has a name called "Qi Death Little Ginseng". Such a statement is enough to prove that yam is powerful. In the face of the powerful effect of yam, ginseng is also depressed. Chinese yam can nourish lung qi, according to Taoist doctors, the color white enters the lungs. When eating yam, we are used to removing the beard and skin of the yam. However, studies have shown that the skin and whiskers of yam can enter the stomach and control blood sugar well. But I have never eaten the skins and beards of yam once, and I always feel that those eating are weird. Maybe we are used to eating yam. Those skins and beards look less comfortable and feel a little unhygienic. Black rice has the effects of appetizing and nourishing the middle, nourishing the spleen and warming the liver, improving eyesight and promoting blood circulation, nourishing yin and nourishing the kidney. The darker the color of the rice, the stronger the anti-aging effect of the epidermal pigment. The effect of the black rice pigment is the strongest among the rice of various colors.
