Sweet Potato vs Normal Potato?!

I have made some sweet potato for my tea tonight but I'm not sure if I should include this in my veg or carbs!? I put normal potato in the carbs section but whats the difference with sweet potato because it's supposed to be better for you!.

Also, how many calories are in sweet potato and a normal potato!?

a sweet potato is a simple carb, and a normal potato is complex(comes under the same bracket as bread and processed carbs!. sweet potato is much easily digested, has more benefits and more flavour!. some people even argue that normal potatoes are'nt even a vegetable but sweet is a carb and a veg(a complex carb, same as aubergines, bananas, more so a carb)!. so if your deciding between the two, id always go for sweet potato, try sweet potato mash, you can even add normal potatoes to get a mix of the two!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sweet potato isn't even a potato!. It's more like a carrot as from the same family!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
