Potatoes themselves can be considered a fairly healthy product with a good chemical composition.
It only becomes harmful when cooked.
Remember that the most useful potatoes are those cooked in the oven. This is especially true for young vegetables.
Which potato dishes are the most harmful?
Store bought French fries
It is worth noting right away that a home-made dish will also be harmful, just not to the same extent. The harmfulness of a store-bought dish is due to the fact that it is prepared in oil that has been in use for an impressive period of time.
As a result, we "pamper" ourselves with an extremely high-calorie dish, "enriched" with carcinogenic substances.
Any fried food
It is important to remember that frying is not the best option for preserving the benefits of potatoes. As a result of heat treatment, the vegetable can become a source of harmful substances.
It is also worth remembering that frying has a negative effect on the cardiovascular system and weight indicators.
Puree
Few would think that mashed potatoes are not a healthy dish either. The answer is simple: due to the special cooking technique, the glycemic index of the dish increases.
It is also almost pure starch.
