Frequently Asked Questions about Long Yam Extract
What is Long Yam / Bi Xie (Dioscorea hypoglauca) rhizome extract?
Long Yam is a trade name for the dried rhizome of Dioscorea hypoglauca, a yam of the Dioscoreaceae family that is better known in Chinese tradition as Bi Xie; the rhizome is known in pharmacy as Rhizoma Dioscoreae Hypoglaucae. This alcohol-free version is a vegetable-glycerin glycerite of the dried rhizome. It has been classically regarded as a mild, non-toxic herb, and it contains natural steroidal saponins. A couple of points matter: do not exceed the suggested serving, and because safety data in pregnancy are limited, it is best avoided in pregnancy unless advised by your practitioner. Please read the notes below.
What is the difference between the alcohol-free and tincture versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Dioscorea hypoglauca rhizome; only the solvent differs. This alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, giving a milder carrier for those who prefer to avoid alcohol. The tincture uses organic alcohol with vegetable glycerin and water, the classic conventional method that yields a concentrated extract with a long shelf life. Choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol; choose the tincture for a traditional alcohol-extracted format. The rhizome inside is identical, and the same notes apply to both.
How is Long Yam different from wild yam, Chinese yam and air yam?
The yam genus (Dioscorea) is large, and we carry several, so the botanical name matters. Long Yam is Dioscorea hypoglauca (Bi Xie). It is different from wild yam (Dioscorea villosa), from Chinese yam and Shan Yao (both Dioscorea polystachya), and - importantly for safety - it is NOT air yam (Dioscorea bulbifera), which is a genuinely toxic species we no longer sell. They are different species with different traditional uses and safety profiles. We label ours clearly as Dioscorea hypoglauca so it is not confused with the others.
How do I use Long Yam / Bi Xie liquid extract?
Shake well first. A typical amount is 20 to 30 drops in 2 oz of water, tea, or juice, up to a few times a day, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Because it contains natural saponins, do NOT exceed the suggested serving, and keep to short-term use. This alcohol-free glycerite has a milder carrier. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light, and shake before each use.
Is Long Yam right for everyone? Safety information.
Long Yam (Bi Xie) has been classically regarded as a mild, non-toxic herb, but a few sensible cautions apply. Saponins: it contains natural steroidal saponins, so do NOT exceed the suggested serving, as large amounts may cause stomach upset; keep to short-term use. Pregnancy and nursing: because modern safety data are limited, it is best avoided during pregnancy, and consult your practitioner before use while breastfeeding. Not air yam: this is Dioscorea hypoglauca, not the toxic air yam (Dioscorea bulbifera). Medications: if you take any medication or have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Do not give it to infants or young children. This alcohol-free glycerite is best refrigerated after opening. Keep out of reach of children. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
