This Easy Hack Makes Sweet Potatoes Way More Blood-Sugar-Friendly
If you’re going to spend time cheffing up a side of veggies, you should probably try to maximize their benefits, no? Similar to how a smoothie may offer more perks than a juice thanks to the added fiber, some vegetables can boast health benefits when prepared one way or another—sweet potatoes included.
We recently sat down with functional medicine expert Amy Sapola, PharmD, director of Farmacy at The Chef’s Garden in Huron, Ohio, on the mindbodygreen podcast to chat about how to make these tasty veggies even healthier. Here, find her blood-sugar-friendly trick.
If you’re trying to make the most out of your sweet potatoes and mitigate a potential spike in blood sugar, Sapola suggests boiling this veggie rather than roasting it. “The preparation technique for a sweet potato can drastically affect the glycemic impact of that sweet potato,” Sapola explains.
To be specific, Sapola says that roasting sweet potatoes can take their glycemic index score from a 60 to a 90—pretty drastic for such a simple change. Now, experts will usually advise against boiling your vegetables, since you lose many of their valuable nutrients in the cooking water. “However, sweet potatoes are a very rare exception,” says Sapola, especially when it comes to your blood sugar response. Just be sure to let your potatoes sit in the pot for more than just a few minutes, Sapola says. “Boiling sweet potatoes whole for 20 minutes covered is actually the best way to keep the glycemic impact low,” she explains.
After your potato has boiled and cooled, it’s time to get creative with preparation. You may opt for a healthier spin on a classic mashed potato side. Or if you’re ready to dive into fall, a sweet potato soup can serve as the perfect comfort food. Either way, you’ll be soaking up all of the nutrients of the sweet potato while potentially minimizing the following blood sugar spike. And if you’d rather bake your sweet potatoes? That’s fine, too: The nutritious veggie boasts plenty of health benefits, even if it does cause a bit of a glucose spike.

Jonathan分享道，“每一款赌桌游戏的背后都是有一套算法的，我们做程序员的都知道，只要是算出来的游戏都会有它的破解法和hack，包括体育博彩都是可预测的。”Jonathan继而表示他利用BK8的《RM300开运彩金》叠加本金，并搭配上他和多位资深百家乐玩家用时一个月研发出的“赢多输少“百家乐秘诀，最后以 RM300 本金爆赚RM590,704，一举达成财富自由！

Jonathan的帖子在吹水站爆红，有不少网友天天催促他分享秘诀 ，而他也豪不避讳地分享：“预测百家乐胜局有一个大前提，那就是那张赌桌必须是新桌。然后口诀如下：
“见庄跟庄，见闲跟闲，见跳跟跳。”
根据Jonathan的分享，
一、第一手不下注。若第一手开庄，则跟买庄，直跟至庄断。若第一手开闲，则跟买闲，直跟至于闲断。不买和（Tie），也不计算和。
二、若原来跟庄，庄断后（即闲开始出现），即改跟闲，直跟至闲断。同理，若原来跟闲，那么待闲断后（即庄开始出现），即改跟庄，直跟至庄断。如此不断重复。
三、若跟庄或跟闲连输两手，则改为跟买“跳”（买前一手的相反。即前一手开闲，则下一手买庄。反之亦然），直跟至跳断，再转回去跟庄或跟闲。若跳断于庄连，则转跟庄；若跳断于闲连，则转跟闲。
这套方法连新手也可以简单操作，而且线上赌场的好处就是不容易受到外界影响，只要心态够稳，紧跟着口诀，就能稳稳赢下去。
据悉，在 Jonathan 分享自己的秘诀后，已有多位玩家亲测并在评论区表示“真的可以赢钱！”其中一位来自槟城的网友 Liew更是大方分享自己连胜12局带走 RM57,800，让他直呼 “口诀真的有用！”
