About Sweet potato in grams
Sweet potato, typically weighing around 130-200 grams per medium-sized piece, is a nutrient-rich root vegetable enjoyed worldwide. Originating in Central and South America, it is now a staple in cuisines across Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Packed with dietary fiber, vitamins A, C, and B6, and minerals like potassium and manganese, sweet potatoes offer numerous health benefits, including supporting vision, immunity, and heart health. They are relatively low in calories, have a low glycemic index, and are an excellent source of antioxidants like beta-carotene. Their natural sweetness makes them versatile for savory dishes, baked goods, or purees. While generally healthy, preparation methods—such as frying or adding sugar—can increase calorie and fat content. A simple baked or steamed sweet potato retains its nutritional value and remains a wholesome choice for all ages.
