Healthy Potatoes

Is there ANY way to make potatoes healthy? It doesn't matter that every tasty preparation method involves frying them in oil or covering them in bacon or stew. Take the base ingredient. What is IN a potato that's worth a hot fucking shit? There's a little bit of fiber in the skin, which is irrelevant compared to the overwhelming volume of starch that makes up the rest of the thing.

It's like white bread and white rice. What's good abut potatoes? How do you take the potato and make it actually healthy?

Try googling it.

Have you ever actually reserached the nutrition of a potato and white rice? They are quite healthy

If youre so concerned then buy sweet potatoes or Russets

Boiled

Potatoes are probably the most nutritious of all stable foods, and despite common knowledge, they're NOT less nutritious than sweet potatoes.
It's not healthy, but it's a food you can live off exclusively for years.

define healthy you mouth breathing neet

> every tasty preparation method involves frying them in oil or covering them in bacon or stew.

Irish man?

or hobbit

Retard?

OI YE GUNNA BASH ME 'ED IN FER THOT YEW CUNT, GIT YER FOT IRISH ARSE UP END DEW SOMTHIN

go gnaw a celery stalk you dumb fuck

You don't eat them for nutrition, you eat them because they are an easy efficient source of calories.

Balance your meals nigga.

You're not funny. No one finds you funny. Stop trying.

Mashed potatoes is pretty healthy. It's just potato, milk and a little bit of butter, which could be substituted for something else.

White potatoes are fairly nutritious and a fine carb source. Sweet potatoes are definitely more nutritious and are tastier anyways.

White rice, while not unhealthy, is one of the most empty foods you could eat

Ay this ones right angry see

Please fucking kill yourself

Why are you so mad irishman? Sad memories of potatoes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?

Sweet potatoes / US Yams are arguably healthier than white russet potatoes or similar.

As for making potatoes healthy - if you chill them for a few hours after cooking, you convert much of it to resistant starch, which has a far lower glycemic load and acts as a prebiotic to improve microbial flora in the intestines.

This means that you can actually make a fairly healthy potato salad - cook the potatoes and then make the salad, perhaps using avocado instead of mayo for dat monounsaturated fat, or using a light dressing made with a high omega 3 content oil (cold-pressed canola, in a dark bottle, or camelina sativa oil), with minced raw garlic, onion, etc. Chill overnight and the glycemic index of the salad will have reduced dramatically.

You havent killed yourself yet. Once you do, me, and everyone you've ever known will be happy

O boi ur an edgy one huh?
Was this why you wore a fedora in high school?

>oil

>healthy

No. This is a result of you not ending your worthless fucking life

See what i mean? Is this "le edginess" why you dont go out in public? Why you sit on Veeky Forums instead of bettering yourself? Lose weight fatty.

How about you end your worthless fucking life already and everyone will be happy

I want it, your parents want it, everyone wants it

You want it

If you keep saturated fat in reasonable proportions, avoid hydrogenated/trans fats, and stick mostly to monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats with an omega 6:3 ratio of less than 3, yes, oil is as healthy as any other macronutrient. There is obviously a problem if so many calories of your diet comes from fat that you don't eat other healthy foods with necessary micronutrients or fiber, however.

Wash, cut into large chunks wrap in foil and bake in the oven.
1 hour at 400.
can't get much healthier. No oil, no boiling the nutrients out

Shit man, im striking a nerve huh? Little fatty tells people to kill themselves on an imageboard because its his subconscious desire? Oh boy.

...

Get a room already

Yes. You're striking a nerve

Now go fucking kill yourself already you obese sack of dogshit

Fatty why are you so mad? You ruined your high school years, go on Veeky Forums and better yourself instead of crying to me.

Because you havent killed yourself yet

Im simply speaking what everyone who has ever known you has wished to say

Its time to do something good for once and fucking kill yourself already

Projecting this hard? Just because i know your patgetic struggle?

Oils have a riduculous amount of saturated fats and can cause endolitheal damage

Please kill yourself already. This is what your very existence is causing

You have nothing to actually say because you know what im saying is true. Now please end it all

So how do i make a roux?

Check to see if Jack made a recipe idk

>Oils have a riduculous amount of saturated fat

Uhhh, no, oils that are liquid at room temperature are typically very low in saturated fat, and contain either monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats.

Like party cheese salad? No thanks.

A single tablespoon of olive oil is 9% SF for the day and 21% total fat for the day

Have you ever even tried it?

Thought so

Yet olive oil consumption has an inverse relationship with CHD

Have you? Jack are you promoting your throwup on this board again?

Like damaging arterial function?

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26378571
>These results provide evidence that olive oil might exert beneficial effects on endothelial function as well as markers of inflammation and endothelial function, thus representing a key ingredient contributing to the cardiovascular-protective effects of a Mediterranean diet

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24775425
>The random-effects model assessing CHD as an outcome showed a relative risk (RR) of 0.73 (95% CI 0.44, 1.21) in case-control studies and 0.96 (95% CI 0.78, 1.18) in cohort studies for a 25 g increase in olive oil consumption. In cohort studies, the random-effects model assessing stroke showed a RR of 0.74 (95% CI 0.60, 0.92).

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4198773/
>The results indicate an overall risk reduction of all-cause mortality (11%), cardiovascular mortality (12%), cardiovascular events (9%), and stroke (17%) when comparing the top versus bottom third of MUFA, olive oil, oleic acid, and MUFA:SFA ratio. MUFA of mixed animal and vegetable sources per se did not yield any significant effects on these outcome parameters. However, only olive oil seems to be associated with reduced risk.

> Olive oil consumption, specifically the extra-virgin variety, is associated with reduced risks of cardiovascular disease and mortality in individuals at high cardiovascular risk.

I find him funny, fuck off retard.

>The direct impact of specific meals on triglycerides and endothelial function was also studied. Three-hour rises in triglycerides and 3-h declines in flow-mediated have been observed with a traditional meal of a hamburger and fries, as well as with cheesecake Olive oil was also found to have the same impairment to endothelial function as the rest of these high-fat meals

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/clc.4960221407/pdf

In your first link

> Taken together, these limitations implicate a cautious interpretation of the results of our meta-analyses.

Olive Oil and Ischemic Reactive Hyperemia in Hypercholesterolemic Patients

>First, the evidence that ischemic reactive hyperemia can be used as an index of endothelial function is very inconclusive

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17174226
>No difference was found in the acute adverse effect of the ingestion of different vegetable oils on the endothelial function. All the vegetable oils, fresh and deep-fried, produced an increase in the triglyceride plasma levels in healthy subjects.

Which is calculating triglyceride levels at baseline as well

sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0735109700008962

>Contrary to part of our hypothesis, our study found that omega-9 (oleic acid)-rich olive oil impairs endothelial function postprandially. The change in FMD correlated with the change serum in triglycerides, so the effect probably results from triglyceride-containing lipoproteins. The mechanism appears to be oxidative stress because the decrease in FMD was reduced (71%) by the concomitant administration of vitamins C and E. Balsamic vinegar (red wine product) and salad reduced the postprandial impairment in endothelial function to a similar extent (65%)

Deep-frying is healthy when done properly. Dunk in hot oil, and it doesn't penetrate.

Soaking them overnight in the fryer like you do is probably why you're fat.

>deep frying is healthy

Instantly stopped reading there.

And again in the first link

>However, due to the heterogeneous study designs (e.g., olive oil given as a supplement or as part of dietary pattern, variations in control diets), a conservative interpretation of the results is necessary.

one of biggest problem with potato is that fat americans you make in much butter and cream and cheese

if you have the glorious plain potato, you will not get fat only strong

Sure, the results are inconclusive in the strict scientific sense, but how on earth do you interpret the conclusion as being the opposite (reduce endothelial function, for example) of what the studies actually found?

>Evidence of heterogeneity was apparent for CHD, but not for stroke

For stroke it unequivocally reduced risk.

By not eating them.

How on earth do you interpret the results I gave you as being olive oil being beneficial, especially for CHD? Even in some of the the results you posted they talk about no benefits of olive oil for it

The first link mentions on how it is entirely inconclusive and the heterogeneous designs may have not been studying olive oil independently. And may be affected by other mechanisms like in the last link I provided?

And for your 2nd link is basically the same thing. The 2nd link basically makes the link with CHD conclusive while promoting the inverse relationship with stroke which cannot be shown to be indicative of endothelial function

The third link is basically the same thing in regards to how the studies were conducted

The fourth study is almost entirely an observational one which isn't that effective in regards to heart disease

Potatoes aren't bad for you. Eat sweet potatoes.

What is best way to cook sweet potato?

He was just avin a craic at it, boyyo.
