Which is better?

[panellove4]

I like both sweet potato and your regualr potato but which should I be eating more of if I am dieting a losing weight? I know they are both carbs but which one is the better carb for the body ?

Of the two the Sweet potato. I should eat more.

I would say sweet potato is the better option, its one of my favorite foods.

the thing with root veggies is they are hard to digest. so they could bloat you up

having said that you aren't gonna get fat off sweet potato, however you can get fat off drenching it will condiments, butter, and oil like they do at restaurants.

the benefit of sweet potatoes is the amazing alkalinity from all its minerals and vitamins it contains.

The nutrient profiles of them are pretty similar. One really isn't better then the other. I would alternate between the two. The best is variety so your body gets a wide variety of different nutrients each day

Both are fine. All you want to do is stick within your calorie limits. I would rotate between them so you don't get sick of one or the other.
