If you’ve ever tried to follow a ketogenic or metabolic plan, you’ve probably heard to stay away from white potatoes.
But if you’re like me and actually enjoy potatoes, that advice can feel restrictive, and honestly, a bit outdated.
The truth is, it’s not just about whether you can eat potatoes. It’s about which kind, and how they’re prepared.
🍠 White potatoes—especially when baked—can spike blood sugar quickly, similar to white bread or soda.
🍠 Purple potatoes and sweet potatoes, on the other hand, are richer in nutrients and have a lower glycemic impact, especially when boiled instead of baked.
Why does it matter? Because the way you cook your food changes its effect on your body, especially your blood sugar, insulin response, and overall metabolic health.
If you’re serious about staying on track with your health goals while still enjoying real food, the details matter.
