Jain dharm me aam taur par jamikand (yam) jaise root-tubers khana mana hai. Jad (jat) se ugne wali cheezein khaane se ped ki jad tak ki jeev-dharna ko nuksan ho sakta hai, isliye bahut se Jain rodi root vegetables se parhez karte hain.

Agar aap Digambar ya Shwetambar sampradaya ke kisi vishesh guru ki baat sun rahe hain, to niyamo me thoda bahut antar ho sakta hai, par aam roop se dono sampraday root vegetables se door rehne ki salah dete hain. Agar aap chahein to main sutro/arth ke saath is vishay ki vistarit vyakhya de sakta hoon.
