Mens Health is the worst source of nutrition information on the internet
I can’t stand Mens Health. They are always trying to come up with some way to show you that bad foods are really good for you because they think that is what men want to hear (see also this article I posted about previously). It is BS, lame, and leads people in the wrong direction.
Like this:
As for the glycemic index, sweet potatoes are lower on the scale, but baked white potatoes typically aren’t eaten without cheese, sour cream, or butter. These toppings all contain fat, which lowers the glycemic index of a meal.
So they are suggesting I eat my white potatoes with butter, sour cream and cheese to lower the glycemic index to that of sweet potatoes (which have no fat)??!!? Yeah, that makes sense.
