    This is because many ingredients such as dietary fiber, protein, and polyphenols in food will reduce the rate of blood sugar rise. The role of sugar can not offset the effect of these ingredients, so although sweet, blood sugar does not rise fast. Although sweet potatoes are sweet, but because of the rich dietary fiber, the glycemic index is significantly lower than that of white rice, white buns and white bread. Especially when eaten with dishes, it will not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar after meals. The content of polyphenols in purple potato is much higher than that of sweet potato, and its blood sugar will rise more slowly.
