Potatoes play a crucial role in traditional Polish cuisine and are often combined with most dishes. However, it is advisable to at least occasionally replace them with sweet potatoes to benefit from their advantages.

Sweet potatoes outpace potatoes

Potatoes are primarily an energy source for our body. They are a rich treasure trove of simple starch sugars. They also contain numerous other minerals, but compared to sweet potatoes, they still lag behind. Here are 5 reasons why it's sometimes worth replacing regular potatoes with sweet potatoes.
