I am on another health group that had a discussion of high carb food including potatoes. Someone on the group who has cut out carbs for the most part said that if you eat potatoes with the skin on, then the fiber from the potato skin absorbs some of the sugar and therefore will be better for you then a peeled and cooked potato.
My question is, can anyone on this group verify that the skin on the potatoes do or do not make a difference? I like to make mashed potatoes with fresh garden potatoes, skin and all, and they are delicious! I have a carb and fat blocker capsule that I keep on hand for when I splurge and eat high carb, high sugar, or high fat meals, and it is mostly fiber. It calls to drink a lot of water with it. Thank you!
