Properties for Health and Fitness<\/h2>\n<p>Hello, how are you? Today I&#039;m going to talk to you a little bit<br \/>\nabout the benefits of yam. This vegetable is very interesting, I will<br \/>\ntell you if it is really good for your health, if it really increases immunity. What are its properties, its benefits? Is it really good for women&#039;s health? Does it really help increase immunity? So stay with me and I&#039;ll explain everything<br \/>\nthis for you now in this video.<\/p>\n<p>Well guys, before we start talking about yam,<br \/>\nThere are some regions of Brazil where it is known as car\u00e1, and in some regions<br \/>\nknown as taro. I think it&#039;s taro, I don&#039;t know if it&#039;s taro,<br \/>\nthen you guys correct me if I said something wrong. But anyway, I&#039;m going to talk about yam, right?<br \/>\nthat I&#039;m more used to talking about yam, and its benefits, what it has to offer<br \/>\ngood for you. First, let&#039;s start by talking a little bit<br \/>\nabout calories, which I think is good to give you an idea. Every 100 grams of cooked yam we have<br \/>\nabout 118 calories, and most of them come from carbohydrates 28 grams, being that<br \/>\nwe also have 1.5 of protein, 3.9 of fiber, and a super insignificant amount<br \/>\nof fat. Although it is a source of carbohydrates,<br \/>\nThat&#039;s not why it&#039;s so suitable for, precisely for an energy issue<br \/>\npurely, yams have very important properties for health and I will talk about<br \/>\nof this now for you.<\/p>\n<p>Well, if you don&#039;t know yam, it is<br \/>\na cousin of sweet potato, cassava, it is also a tuber, it grows underneath<br \/>\nfrom the ground, and also if you are looking to gain muscle mass or even lose weight,<br \/>\nyou can use yam because it has a lot of fiber, so it helps to give<br \/>\nan improvement in its glycemic index. Well, yam is super rich<br \/>\nin vitamins, in minerals, various vitamins, various minerals, contains iron, magnesium,<br \/>\ncalcium, copper, several vitamins, but its main compound when it comes to benefits,<br \/>\nis called diosgenin. And diosgenin is actually used even<br \/>\nby the Pharmaceutical Industry, because through a reaction of the Merker method they<br \/>\ncan convert diosgenin into progesterone, which can even be used in pills<br \/>\ncontraceptives, or hormone replacement therapy for women going through menopause,<br \/>\nand also diosgenin is related to your own production of DHEA in your body. I have a video talking about DHEA, I&#039;m going to<br \/>\nput the link down here in the description if you want to know more about it, but<br \/>\nI&#039;m going to explain this hormonal issue and yam a little better in the video now. I&#039;m going to talk about 4 of the main benefits<br \/>\nof the yam.<\/p>\n<p>The first is for women&#039;s health as a<br \/>\nall, because as I just said, it has diosgenin, which will be converted into<br \/>\nDHEA in your body, and DHEA is a hormone that, it kind of signals endogenous production<br \/>\nof your own body, of other hormones, especially sex hormones: in<br \/>\ntestosterone in men and estrogen in women. So, for women who suffer from cycles<br \/>\nirregular menstrual periods, with a lot of PMS, women who want to get pregnant, or women<br \/>\nwho are in menopause and normally have a decrease in hormone production,<br \/>\nyam can help in this regard. The second great benefit of yam is that<br \/>\nhe is a good adjuvant in the treatment of cancer. And I always like to say that he is a good<br \/>\nsupporting role, because we have to be very responsible when we treat diseases<br \/>\nas serious as cancer actually is.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#039;t want to come here and tell you<br \/>\nthat simply yam is good for cancer, because I know some people can sometimes<br \/>\nsometimes, get very hopeful and suddenly find it so wonderful, and so many effects come<br \/>\nside effects of medication, who decide to stop using the medication to use some<br \/>\njuices, herbs, teas, supplements. So please, if you have any disease<br \/>\nserious, such as cancer, HIV, in short, other serious health issues,<br \/>\nnever abandon your treatment to follow a trendy food, a miracle tea,<br \/>\na magic juice. You can use it, yes, and you should feed<br \/>\nto strengthen your body, improve your immune system, but always following<br \/>\nyour medication that was prescribed by your doctor, who is an expert in this. Well, when it comes to improving, strengthening<br \/>\nyour body to help fight cancer, some components of yam help a lot. First, because it is super rich in beta-carotene,<br \/>\nwhich is a powerful antioxidant, in vitamin C which also helps a lot, but the<br \/>\ndiosgenin helps to improve, to reduce the proliferation of cancer cells,<br \/>\nIt helps fight these cells, it induces cell apoptosis, which is programmed death<br \/>\nof the malformed, mutated, cancerous cell. Mainly in cases of leukemia and cancer<br \/>\nof the colon and rectum. So in these two cases specifically<br \/>\nThere are already some studies that suggest that yam can help. But again, it helps to strengthen<br \/>\nyour body. Never stop taking your medication,<br \/>\ndo your chemotherapy treatment, instead of using a food or some tea, or some<br \/>\nspecific juice. Well, the third benefit is that yam<br \/>\nhelps with heart health. It helps regulate blood pressure levels.<br \/>\nhomocysteine, and we know that the more homocysteine we have in our body,<br \/>\nthe greater the risk of converting cholesterol into LDL cholesterol, which is bad cholesterol,<br \/>\nand form atheroma plaques.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, yam helps to reduce this proportion,<br \/>\nimprove your cholesterol ratio, protecting cardiovascular health as a<br \/>\nwhole. In addition, yam is also a good source<br \/>\npotassium, and potassium helps to excrete excess sodium in our body, and<br \/>\nwith this excess sodium, excess water also comes out, so with that, the question<br \/>\nblood pressure is also favored by the consumption of yam. Well, the fourth benefit is that yam helps<br \/>\nin anemia.<\/p>\n<p>Yam is a very large source of iron,<br \/>\nvitamin C, vitamin B6, folic acid, so it helps as a whole to improve this issue<br \/>\nof red blood cell formation and anemia in your blood, in your body. I have a video talking specifically<br \/>\nof anemia and I&#039;ll leave the link in the description here for you, later, because if you<br \/>\nwant more information about iron deficiency anemia, about anemia related to iron deficiency<br \/>\niron, it&#039;s worth taking a look at this video later, okay? So yam is wonderful, right, you<br \/>\nYou&#039;ve already seen that it&#039;s really worth introducing it into your diet. So, how do we use yam?<br \/>\nin everyday life?<\/p>\n<p>Well, there are a few things you can do.<br \/>\nwith yams, like you would with a potato, with a regular sweet potato. You can mash the yams, you can<br \/>\nmake a hidden dish with some meat underneath, some chicken and the yam on top, you can<br \/>\nput yam, it goes very well, in soups, even in baby soup, right, we use it<br \/>\na lot of yam, because it is kind of neutral, very calm. You can use the yam cut in the oven,<br \/>\nanyway, however you like it, boiled, stewed with chicken. It is very versatile and its flavor is very<br \/>\nsoft, very neutral. It&#039;s so neutral that you can even do it<br \/>\nthe yam vitamin, which is a very interesting way for you to consume it, if you are looking for<br \/>\nthese health benefits, to use in your daily life, in a more consistent way,<br \/>\nI&#039;m going to give you a recipe for a super cool smoothie for you to make on the day<br \/>\na day. Well, so what is this vitamin like?<br \/>\nyam?<\/p>\n<p>You will take 2 peeled cooked yams,<br \/>\nthe juice of half a lemon, as much water as you need to blend it, right, to loosen it up,<br \/>\nand 4 tablespoons of powdered milk, to make it tastier, sweeter. You blend everything in the blender, and it doesn&#039;t<br \/>\nyou don&#039;t even need to strain it, you can drink it straight. \u201cOh Patr\u00edcia, I have an intolerance to<br \/>\nmilk. I&#039;m cutting milk out of my diet<br \/>\nat this moment.\u201d You can replace it with coconut milk, you can replace it<br \/>\nwith almond milk, or you can just mix it with water, which will then turn into a juice<br \/>\nof yam, you can also consume it without any worries.
