Nutrition:
Sweet potato: Fibre, vitamin A and antioxidants. Essential fibre for feeding good gut bacteria. Vitamin A for eye, skin & reproductive health. Antioxidants for protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Note: Sweet potato leaves are edible too. boiled sweet potato has a lower GI than baked or roasted.
Spinach: Contains iron & folate and antioxidants. The gut bugs also love green veggies.
Egg: Healthy omegas, essential fats and protein, small amounts of B12 & iron.
Note: only eat pasture raised or at least free-range eggs. Factory raised eggs may pose health risks, since the omega balance may be skewed; with more omega 6 than omega 3. Eggs from happy hens makes sense.
