Anti-inflammation soup
SWEET potatoes are known to help stabilize blood sugar levels and make you feel full.
Some of the super nutrients these sweet potatoes contain include antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds.
The bright orange flesh is a sign that sweet potatoes contain a massive amount of vitamin A, in the form of beta carotene.
