Raw vs. Cooked Sweet Potatoes
Raw sweet potatoes detoxify the blood.
Cooked sweet potatoes nourish the blood.
White-skinned sweet potatoes improve skin texture and are great for people with rough skin.
Red-skinned, red-fleshed sweet potatoes are rich in nutrients and help nourish the blood and boost energy, comparable to red dates but less prone to mold.

Digestive Health and Children
Sweet potatoes benefit the spleen and stomach, making them ideal for children with weak digestion.
Constipation? Eat boiled sweet potatoes.
Alcohol-related diarrhea? Try baked sweet potatoes to help ease symptoms.
Sweet Potato Stems: A Hidden Superfood
Few know sweet potato stems are edible and beneficial, especially for those with diabetes, as they help lower blood sugar.
They also detoxify the body, relieve intestinal inflammation, skin redness, and ulcers.
Boil water with old sweet potato stems to treat stomach discomfort caused by unclean food.
Apply mashed sweet potato leaves to painful skin for swelling and pus relief.
Don’t Skip the Skin!
Many avoid sweet potato skin, but it’s incredibly healthy.
The flesh is nourishing, and the skin is detoxifying—together they form a yin-yang balance.
Eating the skin can help relieve bloating and acid reflux caused by the flesh.
Caution: Avoid eating sweet potatoes with blackened or brown-spotted skin, which indicates mold.
