      Can potatoes and bananas be eaten together?

      Nutritional value of potatoes

      Potatoes, sweet potatoes, taro and other potato foods are rich in nutrients. They contain much higher levels of protein, vitamin C, vitamin B1, and vitamin B2 than apples. They also have high calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium content. Especially the potassium content ranks first among vegetables. Potatoes contain a large amount of high-quality fiber, which can prevent constipate and prevention cancer etc. So, how to eat potatoes well?

      First of all, the amount must be ensured. The daily consumption of potato foods (potatoes, sweet potatoes, taro) should be about 80 grams. Secondly, there is a good mix of meat and vegetables. As long as the mix is ​​good, you can enjoy delicious food while maintaining a slim figure. When eating potatoes, the intake of staple food should be reduced accordingly. The ratio of potatoes to staple food can be controlled at 3:1 to 4:1. If you eat about 80 grams of potatoes every day, it may help reduce the risk of stroke.

      Mashed potatoes and French fries, which are commonly found in fast food, are oxidized during processing, destroying a large amount of vitamin C and greatly reducing their nutritional content. For French fries, it is easy to increase the fat intake, and it is difficult to judge whether the oil of French fries is fresh. In addition, repeated high-temperature heating will produce polymers, such as toxic substances such as cyclic monopolymers, which are carcinogens, so eat as little as possible.

      Nutritionists point out that you don’t have to worry about excess fat when eating potatoes, because they only contain 0.1% fat, which is the least among all hunger-satisfying foods. Eating more potatoes every day can reduce fat intake and gradually metabolize excess fat.

      Potatoes + bananas: eating them together will cause spots on your face.
