About Sweet potatoes leaves

Sweet potato leaves, derived from the versatile sweet potato plant, are a nutrient-dense leafy green widely used in Asian, African, and Pacific Island cuisines. Rich in vitamins C and B, as well as iron, calcium, and magnesium, these leaves provide essential nutrients that support immune health, bone strength, and energy production. They are also a notable source of antioxidants, particularly polyphenols, which help combat oxidative stress and inflammation. Low in calories but high in dietary fiber, sweet potato leaves promote digestion and overall gut health. Their tender texture and mild, slightly bitter flavor make them ideal for salads, soups, and sautéed dishes. While generally healthy, consuming them in excessive amounts may lead to oxalate-related concerns for individuals prone to kidney stones. Nonetheless, sweet potato leaves stand out as a delicious and nutritious addition to a balanced diet.
