“Sweet potatoes are a nutritional powerhouse that combines energy, healing, and pleasure in one humble root,” says Dr. Mark Hyman, functional medicine physician.
“They’re proof that ‘healthy’ doesn’t mean bland—it means vibrant, satisfying, and life-supporting.”
So roast, mash, or steam them with confidence. Your heart, eyes, gut, and taste buds will thank you.
