The beta-carotene converts to vitamin A which improves healthy vision and along with the other vitamins boosts immunity. Plus the protection of gut health is taken up a notch thanks to the antioxidants and fiber in this vegetable.
The taste upgrade is also undeniable. As the name suggests sweet potatoes have a uniquely sweet flavor that eliminates the need for adding sweeteners. Plus we’re sure you’ll love the vibrantly colored smoothie especially if you use bright orange or purple colored tubers. Finally when it comes to texture sweet potatoes offer a nice creamy consistency thanks to their starch content but the degree of viscosity depends on how you prepare the juice.
