I bought some sweet potatoes in the vegetable market in the morning. I heard that eating sweet potato skin will cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Is this true?

    Long-term sweet potatoes grow under the ground, because their skins are in direct contact with the soil, so many harmful substances will be absorbed in the sweet potato skin, and the sweet potato skin contains more alkali, eating too much will cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
