Potato-based Foods

A few unprocessed foods, such as potatoes, digest quickly. Potatoes with added fat, such as french fries, hash browns, and potato chips, digest more slowly but are much higher in calories. In the Harvard study,1 potato-based foods had a greater association with weight gain than any other food category. Here are some ways to eat less of potato-based foods:

At a restaurant, order a side salad, low-fat yogurt, or fresh fruit instead of fries. Skipping the fries can save you the trouble of having to work off 350 to 400 extra calories (for a medium order).

Substitute sweet potatoes, parsnips, carrots, turnips, or other vegetables for regular potatoes in your meals.

Snack on fresh fruit, celery sticks, or baby carrots instead of potato chips.

Avoid temptation by keeping potato chips and other potato-based snack foods out of the house.
