Sweet Potatoes
Rich in Vitamins A, C and E, antioxidants that help prevent heart disease and cancer, the sweet potato boosts the immune system and slows down the ageing process promoting sharp vision and healthy skin.

Its essential nutrients include vitamin B6, potassium and iron, dietary fibre helps to promote a healthy digestive tract, best results obtained when eaten with the skin.
Their most attractive trait is that they are virtually fat free, no cholesterol and low sodium levels with only 500KJ per one and a half cups of boiled sweet potatoes, making them one of the dieter's best friends, not to mention the fact that they're healthy too.
