sweet potatoes are a complex carb and very low on the GI scale. Fine for cutting if used as part of a well planned diet.

100g of sweet potatoe (baked) contains 8.4g of sugar. total carbs are 20.7 grams.

Yeah..I've asked this question before and got the same type of response. No one seemed to think it was bad. Low GI-sure..but it contains sugar much like fruit..low GI with sugar.
Good things come to those who wait

Yep. I think mine got a few responses. Im actually cooking on right now
I came to the conclusion that they were fine since I saw that Pinnacle used them pretty much exclusively for his carb source..as well as WEBB..and those are 2 huge dudes that seem to have an idea what theyre doing
