For everyone wondering, yes boiling the potato does lower than nutrients but it increases the beta-carotene and it also makes the remainder of the nutrients more absorbable. You're still winning by boiling. anyone that knows, when it comes to eating healthy you would want better absorption then higher nutrient counts... Be healthy my friends.

I switched from rice as my staple carb to sweet potato and the difference has been amazing. Much better energy, I'm much more "regular", my skin looks better, less anxiety, no nasty bloat (didn't even realize this was happening), etc. I don't peel or cut. I just wash them with cold water. Bring a pot to a boil and set the timer to 35 (time depends on the size and how many) around 35 I'll poke one and if the utensil goes in easy, they're done! Such a great carb source. Relatively cheap too!

Sweet potato is good for me I'm diabetic I boiled it for 30 minutes it doesen't spike my blood sugar. I'm always watching ur video watching from the Pilippines

Hey Doctor, I followed your instructions today by boiling the sweet potato. Prior to eating the boiled sweet potato my blood glucose was at 110. Ten minutes after eating my blood glucose was at 116. I thought I was not able to eat sweet potato again until I viewed your video. I was shocked to witness no outrageous blood sugar spike. This was good news today. Thanks for the information Doctor.

I love sweet potato and eat a small one almost everyday. But I find boiling makes it too watery for my taste.
I score the skin along the length about 6 times and microwave it in the skin for about 6-8 minutes (depending on size). The peel then comes off easily in segments and I mash it just with a bit of butter. Divine.
I wear a glucose monitor on my arm and the sweet potato never spikes my sugar. It is amazing!

I just love how you respond to your viewers! Especially, when so many others just care about how many "Likes" and Subscribers they get. Thank you!

I tested this. Here’s my findings:

9:00 am Fasted 15hrs : 96
9:05 : ate half a sweet potato with one over hard egg and 4 tablespoons of ground beef

9:52 am: blood glucose at 92

10:00 am: ate exactly the same as my breakfast : ground beef, egg, half a sweet potato

11:17 : blood glucose at 98


The sweet potatoes I prepared are boiled for an hour and then cooled in my fridge over night.

It works !!!

I cut my sweet potato in quarters, steam 8 min in the microwave. Let cool overnight in the refrigerator. In the morning breakfast is 2 scrambled eggs and a quarter sweet potato skin and all. So far I've lost 37 lbs! And the best part is I'm full until 4 pm, when I eat my last healthy type meal for the day. No snacking in-between and only water, teas and coffee

Greens are very good for a low sugar low carb diet, or so I hear. I love to put sweet potato along with my greens to make them sweeter. I have tried boiling them along with the greens and a little bacon with white onions and had no trouble with my sugar at all. I boiled the potatoes and greens together for about 38 minutes, added the sautéed bacon with the onions, and it was delicious!

Is there any vitamins left in them after you boil them so long also would 1/8 tsp of cinnamon on it help counter the spike?

Thanks Doctor!
I’m eating sweet potato every day, from now on I will boil sweet potato at least 30 minutes.

Hi, Doctor. I was afraid to eat sweet potato, after watch this video I learned how to keep eating what I really enjoy and keep satisfied for a long time. I boil and have with my coffee for breakfast and after 2 hours my glicose is 99 the highest.

I tried this, boiled sweet potato whole with skin on. Tested my blood after 5 minutes and it didn't go up. I tested it again after 15 minutes and it went up by 70 points. I'm going to try it again later with diced peel sweet potato. I'm also planning to try this with taro.

After 5 hours, my sugar level drop to 115, that's about half. I also ate a light somewhat healthy dinner.

I try it the 2nd time with 4 oz of sweet potato, this time I peel it and cut it to 3/4" cube. The before sugar reading was 137, after 1/2 hr it was 174 & after 1hr was 172. My sugar level didn't shoot up, the down side was it wasn't as sweet as before. It did help with my craving for starchy potatoes.

I love sweet potatoes especially the purple ones not too sweet or soft after I boiled them for 30 - 35 mins!

[maritasantos]

[vicardogonzales]

Thanks Dr. I always boil my sweet potato so I prefer it. now I know as a diabetic.... (30mm or more)

[embracetim]

I baked a sweet potato today and only ate only about a fourth of a medium sweet potato and my blood sugar went up to 223. I will definitely try the boiling process to see if it eliminates this complication.

Thanks Doctor, since I was a Young Kid with Farmer's parents, we planted and cultivated all kinds of ASIAN SWEET POTATOES, and WE HAVE ALWAYS boiled potatoes on a POT about 36 minutes on the average and ate them that way. Still do it today in my late 60's. I eat them alone and sometimes with BUTTER or GEE. I love the BLUE / PURPLE JAPANESES Sweet Potatoes primarily for their rich anthocyanin health benefits.
