uteh: @OP, the name of the yan is water yam. I dont know d name in yoruba. U wont get it wit d regular yam sellers in d market. If u live in Lagos, u will see yoruba women who went to Lusada market in Agbara selling it along wit Ijebu garri and other native farm products. They normally display it on d ground in streets or go to Boundary market in Ajegunle.

I watched a documentary about it sometime ago. She has to start eating from first day of menses. I dont know how many months she will eat it before seeing result o. I understand it stimulates ovulation. Hope this helps.
The ijebus use water yam to make ikokore/ifoko and ojojo and these are quite popular delicacies with them. If water yam is the twin maker, then the ijebus should easily topple the igbo-ora folks. Abi?

I'm d last person to believe some things in this 21st century dat a wild yam can constitute to bearing a twin.
To d best of my knowledge, bearing a twin is genetical. It's high time we screen some statement before digesting it.

Nothing like wild yam,it is flour made from cassava 'LAAFUN' is the Yoruba name! If your body doesn't comprehend with that kind of food shift your attention to 'FUFU'/AKPU'! The rest is on God's!

Does your friend's family has a history of twins in her family, paternal or maternal? If not relying on a particular type of food won't help o. I tell you what will help. Since she desires it so, earnest prayer to the giver of twins would do the job. Children are the heritage of God.

°°°mixedchic°°°:
my fiend who is currently undergoing fertility treatment would like to increase her chances of having twins. so she visited over the weekend and we searched the internet on how to concieve twins and heres what we found.

the yoruba tribe has the highest number of multiple births ie twins, triplets in the world and they attribute this to the consumption of a particular wild yam.
the wife of ekiti state governor tried to educate rural women to consume less of the said wild yam due to the potential danger associated with multiple births. I reckon ekiti has the most percentage of all other states.

in lieu of these facts I would like to know the local name of this wild yam and also its preparation.
what dish is made out of it.
how long should she be on the diet before conception or is it too late given that she has not been eating this from childhood?
and lastly are there other foods, veggies etc.. to combine it with.

we are not trying to play God, but obviously God has given us all we want. its just for us to use them for our benefits.

your contributions are highly appreciated

You reckon what bro? Abeg, google am again. My town has the highest number of twin births in the whole world. They call us the twins capital of the world.

What really has gone wrong with the Nigerian youths? I have heard many speak. I have also seen a lot of them act. Character and morals have been thrown overboard! And now majority follow the easy and cheapest way to relevance and stardom - such as posting their leaders as apes.

1) Consult a fertility specialist.

-Breastfeeding: This increases your chances by 9 times.
-Age: Women 45 and older are 17 percent more likely.... http://www.wikihow.com/Raise-Your-Chances-of-Having-Twins
Computation of all these chances will definitely be close if not sum up to 100%. Statisticians in the house, give me an answer.

I can confirm that ekiti has the highest number of twins more than anywhere that I know, but I cant say if it is the food or hereditory because virtualy every family that I know there during my service year has at least a set of twins. I'd would also love to have pair prefferably girls.
