Sweet Potato

The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) is a tuber that grows underground. It's high in beta carotene, an antioxidant that helps to raise vitamin A levels in the blood, especially in children. Sweet potatoes are nutrient-dense, fiber-rich, satisfying, and tasty. Boiling, baking, steaming, or frying is all options.


One full sweet potato, cooked in its skin, contains 1,403 mcg of vitamin A, or 156% of the daily value. Sweet potatoes are high in beta carotene, a kind of vitamin A that your body can convert. The recommended daily quantity of this vitamin is found in just 3.5 ounces (100 grams) of this vegetable. The research found that this compound may aid in the prevention of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Beta carotene may also help protect against cancers like prostate cancer. Sweet potatoes are also low in calories, high in fiber, and have a low glycemic index, making them a good source of vitamin B6, vitamin C, and potassium. Serve a roasted sweet potato in the skin with a salad and a protein source, such as chicken, for a nutritious supper.
