9 natural plant remedies for stomach problems
Chinese yam
This Asian plant is not related to our common yams or sweet potatoes. Ancient Chinese medicine uses it to treat disorders of the stomach, spleen, kidneys and lungs.
Similar to marshmallows, Chinese yam contains fiber that works as a mucilage to soothe and protect the stomach lining. It can help with chronic diarrhea and is thought to improve liver function.
In its natural form, Chinese yam can be eaten baked, boiled, mashed, in soup or even raw. It is also available as a liquid, capsule, dried root or tea.
