    Potato Protein Soup Cooking Rules

    Some people here have tried the Peat potato protein soup and have wondered why he says he cooks it for at least 45min. Some say to inactivate some toxins, but looks like there is a very specific reason for the 45min minimum cook time and it is due to the fact that it increases recovered amount...

    Issues with sweet potatoes?

    I see Ray PEat does not like sweet potatoes and I heard him say in his last interview that sweet potatoes are high in beta carotene and that fiber in it would give you gas. I still think that only the orange sweet potatoes will have beta carotene and the light color variety wont...

    Cooking Potatoes in Water vs. Salted Water

    Is there a difference in the reduction of solanine? According to this paper, peeling the potato and cooking it in salter water removes 36% of the solanine. Is that more than what is removed by cooking it in water without salt and adding the salt later? Glycoalkaloids in potato tubers: The...

    Better To Avoid Starch In Potato?

    I hear a lot about how nutritious potatoes are, but then I also hear that sugar always trumps starch. So is a daily potato a good thing to eat? Or ideally should I get all my carbs from sugars? (& maybe try the potato juice thing)

    Potato Fiber

    Some posters have said that the fiber in a potato is beneficial. Some have said that Dr. Peat says that the fiber in a potato is beneficial.
