Potatoes are high in fibre, which can aid weight loss by keeping you fuller for longer. By keeping cholesterol and blood sugar levels in check, fibre can help prevent heart disease. Potatoes are also high in antioxidants, which help to prevent diseases, as well as vitamins, which aid in proper body function. Potato fibre is a type known as "resistant starch," which has the health benefits of both soluble and insoluble fibre and produces less gas than other fibre types. Cooking potatoes a day ahead of time and chilling them overnight will increase the amount of resistant starch in them. You are welcome to reheat them before eating.
