sweet potato- too much sugar?
Sometimes for lunch I will microwave a sweet potato and eat it plain. I'm reading that this contains a lot of sugar / starch. Does anyone know if a sweet potato has a lot of sugar? Is the starch content in this really significant? Will sweet potatoes (a couple a week) be a real detriment to weight loss? Thank you!
