@sofia_thenutritionist: Who made potatoes “bad”? Per 100 g of the raw product, potatoes contain fewer calories than most other carbs. So why is sweet potato considered “healthy,” and regular potato — not? Why is quinoa a “superfood,” but potatoes somehow aren’t? It’s not about the potato — it’s about the narrative we’ve been sold for years. Potatoes became“bad” because: - old-school diets told us to avoid carbs - mashed potatoes usually come with butter and cream, - fries are cooked in a ton of oil (300–500 kcal!), - we judged the potato by its cooking method, not its nutrition. The actual truth? - A boiled or baked potato is one of the lowest-calorie, most satisfying carb sources. - It has more fiber than white rice and keeps you full for longer. - And yes — you can absolutely include potatoes in your routine, even when your goal is weight loss. Potatoes were never the problem. The misinformation was. #nutrition #nutritiontip #carbs

If we take now how overweigh is usa who eats potatoes and any Asian country who mostly eats rice… 100gram unboiled rice can feed whole family when cooked😝. Plus 100g rice is only 130cal.😂😂😂

It’s not about the calories it’s the glycemic response. Along with rice they are worse than the other options for blood sugar if not paired properly. None of these are bad though

Only thing is that unless you are making boiled potatoes with nothing, it requires quite a bit of oil just to roast them even, bland potato is the worst

If you cook that much quinoa and eat it, you aren’t going to feel hungry the rest of the day and your blood sugar will remain stable. But that amount of potato won’t fill you up even for the one meal and will leave you with cravings due to the sugar spikes. So you will end up eating a lot more!!!
