  • Nutrition Tip

    Sweet potatoes are a great source of vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B6, fiber, manganese, potassium and several antioxidants.

    The bright orange pigment in sweet potatoes comes from carotenoids, a group of antioxidants including beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin.
