People with diabetes are often leery of eating potatoes, a high-glycemic food that can raise blood sugar. But research done at the University of Nevada Las Vegas on behalf of the Alliance for Potato Research and Education, found that, far from being problematic, potatoes are full of nutrients and can improve heart health for people with type 2 diabetes.

Potatoes' reputation for causing weight gain often places them at the top of the list of foods to avoid, however, various studies over the years have refuted this belief, provided the correct preparation method is chosen.

We’ve all seen the image: an elite athlete on a treadmill, strapped up in sensors and breathing through a face mask like they’re about to blast into space. Testing every possible biomarker is just part of the game if you’re seeking performance, but thanks to recent advancements, this tech is trickling down to amateurs, too. The latest tool to consider adding to your kit: a wearable hydration monitor. Unlike apps that remind you to take a sip of water every 15 minutes, hydration monitors work like a running watch, recording your pace to analyze in real-time the amount of fluids and electrolytes you need, and when.

Most people in the United States don’t consume enough whole grains. And that’s a problem, experts say.

Not all carbohydrates are created equal. While the complex carbohydrate is  an important part of a healthy, balanced diet—as they help us feel full and offer sustainable energy—refined or simple carbs typically increase blood sugar levels as high glyemic index (GI) foods and add very little nutritional value.

Baked potatoes have tons of benefits for your body. The potato skin, in particular, is the ticket.

If you have diabetes, you may be all too familiar with the practice of opting for low-carb foods as often as possible. Even people who don’t have diabetes may get the idea—from diet culture—that carbs are one of the “worst” nutrients for your body.
