4. Sweet Potatoes
Potatoes are carbohydrates and this includes sweet potatoes. However, the reason they’ve been included on this list is that they are actually the good kind of carbohydrates.
In other words, they are ‘complex carbs’ which means that they have enough going on that they still take a while to digest and they still release their energy very slowly.
This means that sweet potatoes can be the perfect alternative to regular potatoes. And you can even enjoy them fried to make sweet potato fries!
