I am a medical student. The teacher said that when he talked about diabetic patients in class, it is better for people with diabetes to eat more potatoes. Why is there something special about potatoes?

    This is still a good answer. First of all, let’s look at the carbohydrate content of potatoes. The carbohydrate content in vegetables is 18%, the content of rice is close to the "substitute", in addition, potatoes are also rich in vitamins C and minerals, the starch absorption rate after cooking is much less than that of steamed bread, and it is better than the steamed rice for controlling blood sugar. In addition, many practices of potatoes can also meet the problem of cravings in some diabetic patients.
