Sweet potatoes: Sweet potatoes are great diet foods because they are low in so called glycemic index. The glycemic index measures the values of various foods on how quickly they break down and are absorbed into the bloodstream. “The slower the digestion, the lower the score, the better the food the food is for regulating blood sugars, insulin and overall metabolism- all of which affect fat deposition.
