00:00:03.540 --> 00:00:05.920 
Two reasons to consider before eating sweet potato peel. 

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:08.200 
Risks from pesticide residues 

00:00:08.200 --> 00:00:11.643 
Sweet potato peel may contain pesticide
residues and heavy metals 

00:00:11.643 --> 00:00:13.020 
from the farming environment. 

00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:16.525 
Some reports show that potatoes are in
the group of foods with 

00:00:16.525 --> 00:00:17.760 
high risk of chemical residues. 

00:00:18.340 --> 00:00:22.040 
However, experts emphasize that this
food should not be completely eliminated because of this. 

00:00:22.340 --> 00:00:25.815 
Washing thoroughly under running water,
compressed tea, or peeling 

00:00:25.815 --> 00:00:27.360 
can significantly reduce exposure. 

00:00:27.360 --> 00:00:31.120 
These measures help balance nutritional
benefits and food safety. 

00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:33.460 
May cause digestive discomfort 

00:00:33.460 --> 00:00:36.748 
Sweet potato peel contains a lot of
insoluble fiber, which can cause 

00:00:36.748 --> 00:00:40.310 
bloating or indigestion if eaten too
much, especially for people who are not 

00:00:40.310 --> 00:00:41.680 
used to a high-fiber diet. 

00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:46.060 
When the body has not adapted,
increasing the amount of fiber can lead to bloating. 

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:49.167 
Experts recommend increasing fiber
intake gradually and combining a variety 

00:00:49.167 --> 00:00:52.100 
of foods to support the digestive
system to function more effectively.
