I don't know what it is called in actual but in my state it is called yam and I think it is known as elephant yam so my question is that can heart, diabetes or an tuberculosis patient (recently diagnosed medicine has been stopped) can eat it? Is elephant yam is good for heart patient?

Yes it's good for health. Actually any nutrient-source with Good-fat like Walnut, can be considered as good for proper functioning of heart,as it prevents from higher Cholesterol & Triglyceride level & also important. Tuberculosis patients who stopped medication recently, should take Vitamin & mineral rich diet with green leafy Vegetables.

Elephant yam can be taken for diabetes, high bp or even tb. It is good. But you should not take sweet potato as it is also called yam in many places.

Hello user Thank you for the question. Yam contains many essential nutrients and is considered to be a good source of Resistant Starch, these functional ingredients may have many health benefits. While eating it a lot of things need to be considered such dietary habits, age, height, weight, medical reports, medications. Only on the basis of this information can we suggest any food/ingredient and its quantity and timings.
