Yams (Inhame)
Yams are an excellent source of fibre, high in potassium and manganese, which are important for supporting bone health, growth, metabolism and heart function. These tubers also provide decent amounts of other micronutrients, such as copper and vitamin C. Copper is vital for red blood cell production and iron absorption, while vitamin C is a strong antioxidant that can boost the immune system.
