Yacon is a vegetable related to sunflower and Jerusalem artichoke. It grows in Latin American countries, its taste is very refined, sweet and similar to an apple. From these fruits, a sweet and pleasant-tasting syrup is made. Root tubers contain protein and all amino acids, as well as many vitamins, including vitamin C, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin. Yacon is called a diabetic potato. The plant has antioxidant properties in the presence of selenium, chlorogenic and caffeic acids, as well as a number of phenolic compounds. In addition, it also has hypoglycemic properties.

Yacon is useful for people on a diet, as it is a low-calorie product. Inulin, a hard-to-digest carbohydrate and oligosaccharides, gives it a sweet taste. Inulin is a very important probiotic for our health. The carbohydrates that it contains are digested slowly and serve as food for beneficial bacteria in the intestines.
