Yam is a perennial climbing plant growing in the mountains of Korea, Japan and China. When we cut yam, sticky liquid containing mucin is emitted. Mucin is one of the components of skin and is helpful for retaining moisture on skin, which results in making our skin moisturized and glossy. Plus, it is reported that mucin has anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant effect. There are more mucin and less water in wild yam than normal one, so nutritions are more concentrated in wild yam. For this reason, wild yam is valuable as an ingredient of food and cosmetics.
