Tip
Potatoes
contain an easily digestible
form of carbohydrate which is
invaluable for good health. The plant
protein in potatoes is also highly
beneficial, as are the vitamins and
minerals found both just beneath the
skin as well as inside them. All good
reasons for making them an integral
part of your diet!
