Potato

Potatoes are a starchy root vegetable that are commonly used in a variety of dishes all over the world. They are a good source of vitamin C, vitamin B6, potassium, and fiber. Potatoes also contain antioxidants, such as carotenoids and flavonoids, which can help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. However, potatoes are also high in carbohydrates and can cause a spike in blood sugar levels if consumed in large amounts. It is important to note that when fried or prepared with added fats, such as in french fries, potatoes can become a less nutritious and high calorie food option.
