Irresponsible, Gene? Ever heard of the glycemic index? Potatoes are broken down into glucose, in many cases, faster than soft drinks. Potatoes aren't the devil...nothing wrong with some spuds every now and then, but make french fried potaters and other high glycemic-index foods the mainstay of your diet and...BAD THINGS:
- Skyrocketing blood sugar
- Hormone imbalance
- Metabolic syndrome:
- Overweight
- Insulin resistance and diabetes
- Chronic disease
