Sweet potatoes are a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals, making them worthy of a spot on your plate year-round. A single sweet potato provides 400% of your daily Vitamin A needs, helping to support ocular health and immune function. Our health coaches here at Wild Health often recommend sweet potatoes for their ability to help regulate blood sugar. When boiled, this low-GI food is an excellent choice to avoid blood sugar spikes and, research suggests, sweet potatoes can even help lower LDL ("bad" cholesterol) levels, making them great for your heart. #eattheseasons
