my understanding of regular potatoes any color skin flesh etc.
is this... potatoes
are on the dirty dozen list... sweet potatoes
are on the clean 15... i eat over 50 % of my diet in the form of a few different colors of sweet potatoes... i buy them bulk... peel»em very deeply... at least 1/2 inch all around... i sometimes get them as large as 6 pounds (football sized)... i used to wear out the regular potatoes but after speaking with the safety expert from a huge potato company to find out if the potatoes
are grown on soil which had
grain crops treated with round - up herbicide filled with atrazine and glyphosate (which most
grain crops
are... inluding many wheat crops... they get sprayed like 3 days before harvest... then the round - up
is in the soil)... problem
is... the round - up stays for 7 years... after stayin» off the soil for a couple years... it can have any kind of crop planted on it and get an organic rating... but... whatever
was planted on that soil
is then full of round - up... so... this crop rotation onto fields which had
grain crops sprayed with round - up herbicide etc.
is EXTREMELY COMMON IN THE GROWING PRACTICE FOR REGULAR POTATOES... very common practice... so even if you peel»em deeply... they
are still soaked with round - up... the glyphosates get in the gut... the aluminum which
is all over everything grown above ground and not covered (hot house etc)... gets eaten9ya can't wash it off... unless ya peel everything... but greens etc. ya can not get it out... it gets in the fiber)... then ya eat it... it goes in the gut... mixes with the glyphosate... becomes 10,000 timesmore toxic... inhibits the bodies ability to properly process sulfur into sulfide and sulfate... basically many very smart researchers
are sayin'this
is the cause of all this asperger's... autism... alzheimer's like symptoms in the elderly... you can only take so much nano... pico... and heavy metal poisoning... the brain starts to act very strangely... so... long story short... i eat lots of sweet pots grown on clean soil... they
are non-gmo and basically grown organically... but... the
grower doesn't pay for the certification... i make sure to get my omega 3 from fresh ground flax seed in the morning away from my sweet potato consumption... the omega 6 in the sweet pots inhibits the absorption of omega 3 and i only want so much fat daily... i
