Many other yams are used as a starter material for hydrocortisones in orthodox eczema creams. D. Villosa(shan yao), the Chinese yam, is an important tonic herb. Its main action is on the kidneys, lungs and stomach, and it is included in remedies for asthma, menopausal syndrome, urinary disorders and weak kidney energies.
