Yacon: The Healing Rootcrop

Get Update Alerts! Enter your email address:

yacon_senor enrique

These are not yams or sweet potatoes (kamote). These are yacon.

It can be eaten raw. Its crunchiness resembles that of sinkamas; however, Yacon is sweet with a slight tinge of a gingerly taste to it. And although sweet, it doesn’t affect one’s sugar level. No wonder it is popular among those with diabetes and those on a diet. The reason for this is that supposedly, yacon store carbohydrates in the form of insulin and not starch. Its high fiber content is also effective against constipation. There are those who claim that yacon also purifies the blood.

It costs P30 per kilo at the Baguio market. From what I understand, about ten years ago, one could get them in Metro Manila at the weekend markets of Cubao in Quezon City and Magallanes in Makati only. The price then was about a hundred pesos per kilo. Nonetheless, many people purchased yacon for its healing properties.

they are being sold at chinatown binondo as well. i’ve seen them at the tiny wet market at carvajal street, and those tulak-sidewalk-vendors.

elna » December 1st, 2006 at 10:13 am

we are actually planning to have a research on the tissue culture of yacon. What can you say about its production in the country? Is it stable enough? or do we still need to produce more of this crop in different areas of the country?Ü

Minette » December 6th, 2006 at 12:49 pm

the vegetable stand at the salcedo organic market (saturdays, 7am-2pm) has a pretty steady supply of yacon.

i’ve never tried it before: but you’ve made me reconsider.

how do you grow yacon?

naomi, m.d. » December 30th, 2006 at 8:00 am

gerry golez » January 19th, 2007 at 8:38 am

Yacon indeed is a very special plant. I used to drink yacon tea for more than a year now and my blood sugar coming from 278 level went down to 176 in just two months.
Now I am drinking it regularly to control my sugar level.

Melchor P Biasbas » February 26th, 2007 at 11:08 pm

We always buy yacon because its crispy and delicious. However, we find it very expensive. Cost of 1 kilo is P65.00 at SM Hypermart. Can you send me some recipe? will appreciate it very much

ethel » April 13th, 2007 at 2:21 pm

We have a lot of diabetics in the family. I would appreciate additional info on where affordable yacon tubers and tea may be bought, preferably in the Quezon City and Ortigas areas. Thanks.

maya » April 20th, 2007 at 11:49 pm

my mom buys it from a market a few blocks away from us. i got pretty curious with it. it indeed tastes like singkamas, a bit sweeter and it’ll probably be better if it’s eaten straight from the fridge.

just pretty expensive though, at P80/kilo. their supply comes from benguet.

btw, the market is called “SUKI”, along Mayon st. near welcome rotonda in quezon city.

regie » April 21st, 2007 at 1:38 pm

gerry » May 7th, 2007 at 3:04 pm

Hi everyone,

If you are in need of yacon tea, just contact me at 09224353932. Am from Baguio and am wholesaling yacon tea at P120 for 20 bags in a pack (minimum order of 20 packs). We also have yacon fruit but it is sold in wholesale at 50 kilos for P30 a kilo. I can ship your items via courier or victory liner (Cubao or Pasay).

jill » January 23rd, 2008 at 3:52 pm

I am a researcher based in Ateneo, QC. I did some research on yacon hoping to help yacon farmers in Nueva Vizcaya market their produce. Please let me know if anyone is interested to make some form of purchase agreement with the farmers, I’d be more than willing to facilitate contact with them. My email is jill.campo@gmail.com

FYI for other readers, yacon is being sold in SM hypermarkets at around P50-60/kilo; wholesalers in Divisoria and Balintawak markets sell them for P30-35/kilo. Other retail outlets: Market Market, Taguig (P40-45 offpeak, P60-80 peak season); Rockwell, Makati (P100-200/kilo); Alabang Town Center (P80-100/kilo)

The farmers in Nueva Vizcaya sell their yacon for P12-15/kilo.

Anyone know where I can buy some yacon crowns in Baguio so that I can plant and raise my own. After eating yacon for about 6 weeks when I went for my last checkup my blood sugar was 108, for the last 4-5 years has not been below 147. My Dr. has taken me off metformin and I now only take one diabetic med now which is now saving me over P2,000.00 per month

youre lucky to buy yacon at a low price coz hir in our town, that costs 200 per kilo..omg!!people are taking advantage of yacon’s benefits and they are selling it over priced!:(

No, prices varies. yacon fruits are now expensive because of small amount of harvest. And what do you expect, in manila they have to pay for the shipping. Yacon fruits are heavy, so they shipping is a bit pricey. and then they have to gain profit. Maybe it turns to 200 per kilo there.

Anyway I am selling yacon products.

What I mean is the prices are getting higher because of the small supply nowadays. Farmer also considers the weather if they would plant yacon for that month, because yacon is very sensitive. Some farmers just decide to plant other plants instead of yacon.
