White sweet potatoes...a little different twist on a veggie and they got the best of my need to check this off my veggie curiosity list.
White vegetables typically get a bad rap because they aren't nutrient dense. Not true with white sweet potatoes. They're an excellent source of Vitamin C, they're chock full of Vitamin A, and a good source of dietary fiber and B vitamins.
Finally, don’t let the name fool you – white sweet potatoes don’t contain the “bad” kind of sugar. The starch they contain is considered a complex carbohydrate, which helps regulate blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, and can be beneficial to people with diabetes.
Eat the potato.
