Patient's question:
Can you eat sprouted taro? If you eat it, what will happen? Also, what are the things that can be eaten when they sprout, and what cannot?Doctor's answer:
Hello. According to your description, sprouted taro can be eaten. The reason why sprouted potatoes cannot be eaten is because they produce solanine. Taro, on the other hand, does not contain solanine and therefore does not have this issue. As a result, sprouted taro is also safe for consumption. However, after sprouting, some nutrients are consumed. The texture of sprouted taro becomes worse, and its nutritional value also decreases slightly.
