Guest guest Posted April 9, 2003 Report Share Posted April 9, 2003 Hi ladies, Recently I have been obsessing over Yams. I love them I caould eat them for all 6 meals as a carb. Does anyone know if these are REALLY good for you, or just ok? I heard that too much potatoes is not good, but wasn't sure about the yams. Also is white rice a total no- no? I ran out of brown rice, so used white today, the nutrtional value is the almost the same, but I know that white riced is processed and is striped of nutrients, but can I still have it on occasions like this? Thanks for any advice! Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2003 Report Share Posted April 9, 2003 I love yams too! And agree I could have them for all 6 carbs. I know that they are a ton better for you than white potatoes. Just make sure you don't overdo your portion. As for the white rice, I would say it's fine in a pinch, but if you have a different carb to choose (barley's a good one), I'd use that instead. The white rice *IS* too processed and in my book isn't " clean eats. " HTS, > Hi ladies, > Recently I have been obsessing over Yams. I love them I caould eat > them for all 6 meals as a carb.
