why the fuck wouldn't they be

>I only eat food approved by a gathering of autists

Helps a lot with acido-basic stuff so yeah it is

>>38486576
Sure why not? Lots of vitamins and carbs for lifting. One of my favorite breakfast foods.

>>38486642
>>38486576

yeah, it balances the ph levels in your body.

You would need to buy organic though. all root vegetables accumulate high amounts of pesticides inside the root. So better spend a few more bucks and be free of pesticides.

They are the right kind of carbs you fucking faggot

>>38486576
No. Sweet potatoes are cooler.

Best carbs out there

>>38487025
This but they're more expensive.

Also, in regards to potaters: You are able live your entire life only eating potatoes and butter - they have all the nutrition you need to survive.

On a related note: How do people eat their sweet potatoes? My dining hall has baked sweet potatoes, but I need ideas on what to eat with them.

>>38486576

They're great for quick cuts too. Eat nothing but potatoes for a week.

>>38487699
In another pan bake ground beef and veggies. Mash sweet potato and with pumpkin. Goat cheese in top.

Throw in the oven.

Love taters, love sweet taters even more.

>>38487699
1. chop into cubes and heat them up in a pan, put them on salad
2. baked sweet potato
3. grilled with ground beef
4. chop up and put in an omelette (had that for breakfast today)

they are if you cook them, not if they're chips you mongoloid

Which potato to eat /fit/? Regular, red skinned, sweet? So many choices and they're all good

>>38486642
>>38486695
Food doesn't affect blood pH levels. Your blood HAS to stay at very narrow range or you'll die. It's auto regulated with a substance that can be switched between a weak base or acid to maintain blood pH. You're believing the worst of mom/vegan bullshit.

>>38486576
yes, slice em into fingers dip them in hot oil and dump cheese bacon and sour cream on them to cool it off so u can eat them 4 maximum gains bruh

>>38486576
Probably single greatest carb source in terms of versatility and satiety. Not to mention cheap as fuck. They only get a bad rep by paleo retards and from the fast food industry adding trans fats and making them fries.

>>38486576

>>38487676
No molybdenum and actually no complete protein either. Potatoes and cheese/milk would be pretty close

Potatoes still have an insane amount of micros though.

Did cavemen not dig up potatoes?

heard you were talking shit

>>38488433
Ofcourse they did, but most people who do paleo don't know shit from shinola about actual paleolithic nutrition so they usually demonize every carb that isn't a cruciferous vegetable and follow whatever the fuck Dr. Cordain says without reading a basic nutrition book.

I fucking love potatoes

Feels good that we invented something as delicious as the potato, you're welcome world.

>>38486576
like any food it has pros and cons

PRO
Reduces isomorphic phenol levels
Boosts testosterone
High complex carbs
High satiety score
Lots of vitamins
Low in memes
Cost

CON
Increases blood cholesterol levels
High in neurotoxins
Low mineral balance profile
Increases estrogen levels
Accelerates insulin stimulus response
Linked to cystic fibrosis

>>38489423
>Boosts testosterone
>Increases estrogen levels
Isn't this contradictory?

>>38487676
You can survive off boiled tree bark as well but you'll have tons of vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Just like with potatoes. Sweet potatoes have more vit/min but you'll still be missing out on half the required stuff. Protein being a main problem. Your muscles will wither away.

>>38488273
That's a lie many paleo eat regular and sweet potato.

>>38489454
No. Is it contradictory to say that the number of Christians and Muslims in a country is increasing?

>>38488712
reads basic nutrition book written by grok.
just squiggly lines

>>38489504
I was just asking from ignorance.

>>38489423

>potatoes increase blood cholesterol levels

???

>>38489274
Not gril but also cf here. Ucf?

>>38489509
Sorry I was smug. The answer is no, you can increase the levels of both. Men and women both produce testosterone and estrogen anyway. They don't cancel out, they do different things. But obviously they interfere with each other.

>>38489557
An what happens when you have high levels of both?

Oh man seasoned potato halves in the oven are like a gods gifts to humanity.

I have no idea why some people love to eat pasta as a side-dish when both potatoes and rice are far tastier and healthier

a good source of complex carbs you can eat all the time for carbs and it's one of the very few good sources of potassium

>>38489731
whole grain pasta > potatoes health wise
the only healthy potatoes are the colored ones like red and purple all others cause inflammation
brown rice is also good

>>38487699
Stuff/top them like you would an ordinary baked potato. My personal favourite is with some slightly cooked cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta. Some other favourites include:

>cheddar and bacon
>salt and butter or a little cream cheese
>beans
>fried eggs
>chilli
>Thai curry
>sliced chicken breast and parmesan
>etc

The possibilities are endless.

>>38487699

If they're baked properly, they should be great as-is.

>>38489028
I'm Irish too. We didn't even have potatoes until they were brought over after the discovery of the Americas. That's a really short period of time in the grand scheme of things.

amerindians invented potatoes though...

I tried eating close to nothing but potatoes. I'd get heart palpitations after eating 2 in one sitting...I read that was a sign of possible diabetes so it scared the shit out of me.

Either this:

or this:
>chopped like fries with salt, garlic powder, pepper and chilli powder

>>38489028
You can't be fucking serious. I'm history illiterate and I know it was brought from the Americas.

>>38491542
s-source..?

>>38491886
So what? Tomatoes came from the Americas and noodles from Asia and yet Italians make the best pasta. It's fair game saying that the Irish are to thank for potatoes.

>>38489504
I love that this implies christians are testosterone and muslims are estrogen when the other way around makes sense too

sweet potatoes masterace reporting.

>>38493339
>It's fair game saying that the Irish are to thank for potatoes.

No. It's really not.

>>38487699

Look at this >>38487833

Basically do a shepherd's pie, but use ground turkey instead of beef, and mashed sweet potatoes or yams instead of yukon gold. Fucking GOAT for high protein low fat.

>>38487676
>more expensive

Actually, he got a venereal disease from some raw eggs that left him bedridden for about half a year. It took most of the weight off him, and he just hasn't been gaining it back.

Neither of these are true. I listened to his podcast.

He went to the doctor, got diagnosed with hypertension and told it was genetic and to start taking medication. He questioned the doc a bit and realized that genetics weren't his problem, he was hypertensive because he was overweight (like his parents were, hence "genetics"). He contacted his friend who's good with diet stuff and went on a very strict diet because he wanted to lose as much weight as fast as possible while eating foods that lower blood pressure. The diet he went on had no animal products at all, no oil or other added fats, and no salt. Basically 1 meal in the middle of the day made of whole grains and vegetables. One of his favorites was black rice (not wild rice) stewed with tomatoes and spinach. He lost weight fast as fuck and avoided having to take medication. His maintenance diet now is less strict but still along the same lines, being a pescetarian diet based on Joel Fuhrman's "eat to live" plan, made of mostly vegetables, beans, fruits, nuts, whole grains, and salmon once or twice a week.
