White Potatoes, Human Health, and Dietary Guidance Potato Facts and Figures The potato (Solanum tuberosum) belongs to the solanaceae family of flowering plants. It originated and was first domesticated in the Andesmountains of South America. The potato is the third most important food crop in the world after rice and wheat in terms of human consumption. More than a billion people worldwide eat potato, and global total crop production exceeds 300 million metric tons. There are more than 4,000 varieties of native potatoes, mostly found in the Andes. Potato is vegetatively propagated, meaning that a new plant can be grown from a potato or piece of potato, called a “seed”. Potatoes can grow from sea level up to 4,700 meters above sea level; from southern Chile to Greenland. One hectare of potato can yield two to four times the food quantity of grain crops. Since the early 1960s, the growth in potato production area has rapidly overtaken all other food crops in developing countries.

What 23 Days On The Potato Cleanse Did To Me | One Simple Vegan What is the Potato Cleanse? It’s a diet where potatoes are your only starch – you can eat any kind of potato, even sweet potato. Oh, and you can eat as much as you want whenever you feel hungry. Allowed: – any spices (dried or fresh) – 1-2 tablespoons of sugar or maple syrup per day – non-starchy vegetables – oil-free / fat-free sauces – water and tea Not allowed: – other starchy foods (corn, beans, rice, grains) – fruit (main source of calories is supposed to be from potatoes) – caffeine should be avoided Why do this cleanse? The last few months I was eating a lot of junk food and did some bad food combining which made my digestion really weak and I didn’t feel good at all. What was my experience like? Week 1: During the first week I felt really tired and exhausted, and I also experienced headaches – however, I can’t tell if that was because of the cleanse or because I gave up coffee. Week 3: I felt much better and had way more energy. What did I learn? Would I recommend this cleanse?
