Baked sweet potato — beta-carotene-rich starch.

Lower glycemic load than white potato, more vitamin A. Great pre-workout carb.

Best for

  • training days and glycogen refill — 20g carbs / 100g
  • budget meals where cheap energy density matters

Watch out

  • portion creep — cooked volume looks bigger than the grams you meant
  • sauces and oils that turn a carb staple into a hidden calorie sink

How to log it

Weigh cooked sweet potato if that is the state in the DB serving. 1 medium baked (~130g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Best next to a protein source. Alone it is fuel, not a complete macro plan.

Cooked, grilled, fried & breaded

These are typical ranges, not lab measurements. Restaurant recipes, oils, and sauces vary — treat them as logging estimates and edit if your plate looks heavier.
