JUDI FOODS COCOYAM CHIPS 60G
Cocoyam also known as Taro (scientific name: Colocasia esculenta) is a root vegetable that is a staple food in parts of Asia, Africa, South America, and the Pacific Islands. The plant has large leaves and its corm somewhat resembles a turnip. Inside, it has white flesh with hints of purple.
Cocoyam ontains a number of vitamins, such as vitamin E, minerals, and fiber. It has a low glycemic index (GI). This means that they are among the foods that, when consumed, release glucose into the bloodstream at a steady and sustained rate. Low GI foods are beneficial to those who are at risk for coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes, and also help those with diabetes manage their blood sugar.
Cocoyams are a good source of potassium, an electrolyte that is helpful in reversing the effects of sodium on the body. An increased potassium intake can thus lower blood pressure and decrease the risk of heart disease and hypertension.
And a 2012 study reported that a therapeutic agent derived from cocoyam was shown to inhibit tumor metastasis. Another study in 2014 at the University of Maryland, Baltimore further looked at the potential of cocoyam as a therapeutic agent against metastatic breast cancer and other aggressive cancers.
