Can people with excessive dampness in the body eat yacón?

People with excessive dampness in the body should not eat yacón, as it is a cold-natured fruit tending toward raw and cool properties. Consuming yacón may lead to spleen and stomach deficiency-cold, and for those already suffering from excessive dampness, eating it could worsen their condition. Instead, they can regularly consume mild foods with dampness-removing effects, such as red bean and barley porridge. They should avoid raw, cold, spicy, greasy, and irritating foods in their diet, engage in regular physical exercise, strengthen their immunity, and thus promote recovery.
