Taro is not only a vegetable, but also a coarse grain. Occasionally it can be used instead of staple food. Generally speaking, eating taro won't make people fat, so people who lose weight can eat taro and replace the staple food during weight loss, but don't just eat taro every day, just occasionally, and eat other foods.
