Is It Good To Have Sweet Potato for Breakfast?

Making a sweet potato hash in the morning is a powerful way to maintain normal blood sugar until your lunch time. The carotenoids (powerful plant antioxidants) may help stabilize blood sugar avoiding up and down spikes.

Unlike white potatoes that have a tendency to spike blood sugar levels, sweet potatoes spread out sugar release into the blood stream steadily. Thus we do not feel hungry or in need of cravings.

To those who need some extra help with skin maintenance, sweet potatoes are rich in Vitamin C which is responsible for collagen formation and maintenance.

IMPORTANT: Vitamin C works in conjunction with Vitamin D to promote healthy teeth and bones. They are more potent when present together at one place.

Preparing recipes similar to this sweet potato and kale saute will ensure your vitamin and mineral intake on the regular basis.

Easy Pouched Eggs to Boost Your Vitamin Intake

I have prepared this recipe to enjoy as a meal. With the complex carbohydrates that sweet potato and kale offer, I added an egg that is a protein meal, as we all know.

However, one egg offers essential vitamins that we need for our functioning every single day. Some of the most prevalent vitamins found in one egg are Vitamin D, Vitamin A, and Vitamin B6.

Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) is important for normal brain development and for keeping the nervous system and immune system healthy.

Vitamin A is an essential nutrient for healthy vision, teeth, skeletal tissue, and skin.

The benefits of Vitamin D cannot be underestimated. Without this essential vitamin in our blood stream, our teeth and bones will become brittle, our immune, nervous systems and brain will be undermined. And our blood sugar control will be compromised as well.

Those of us who care about their skin health and looks, watch out for balanced Vitamin D in your body! On the cellular level, this vitamin contributes to skin cell growth, repair, and metabolism. It optimizes the skin’s immune system and helps destroy free radicals that can cause premature aging. Making a sweet potato egg skillet will get you full and running in no time!

Know your way around skin vitamins, retinoids and ceramides to benefit you!

Being exposed to the sunshine helps to generate Vitamin D in our skin. But if you avoid the sun, eating foods rich in vitamin D is a must.

Anti-Inflammatory Daily Diet Is the Key to Healthy Aging

I realize more and more that small things like a sweet potato hash breakfast bowl, skin cleansing routine, water intake, physical exertion be it a workout at the gym or a power walk make a huge difference how we feel as our physical body counts its biological age on this earth.

Including the foods with anti-inflammatory properties into our daily meals is one of the top priorities to keep our organs – from skin to heart – in ship-shape and humming.
