Eat potatoes
1 Potatoes are rich in important trace elements such as potassium and calcium – good for normalising blood pressure and healthy bones.
2 They’re a great source of fibre, which helps to keep you fuller for longer and bowel function regular.
3 Potatoes contain phosphorus which keeps bones healthy, which is so important in osteoporosis and arthritis.
4 They have some antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin that may help lower the risk of cancer.
5 Potatoes contain vitamin K, which is essential in forming clots to prevent bleeding if you have a wound.
