	Ipomoea aquatica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ipomoea aquatica is a semi-aquatic tropical plant grown as a leaf vegetable.
		Ipomoea aquatica grows on water or moist soil.
		There is a belief in Chinese culture that discourages extensive consumption of Ipomoea aquatica as a staple food crop (in contrast to rice) with the explanation that the hollow stem makes the person weak and hollow like the plant, although this belief does not advocate refraining from eating the plant entirely.
