If you had to pick a specific food that was high in potential energy to include in your diet, which food would you pick and explain how this food is high in potential energy

I would choose the sweet potato.

Explanation:

Sweet potatoes are a source of complex carbohydrates (which provide a lot of energy for the body), thus containing a low glycemic index, which differentiates sweet potatoes from English potatoes, for example, which have the highest glycemic index. When we eat the sweet potato, its carbohydrate is transformed into glucose, which gradually falls into the bloodstream. And that makes all the difference because it does not require large amounts of insulin for glucose to be transformed into energy in cells. With this, the accumulation of fats is smaller, and promote satiety longer. Because of this, sweetpotato carbohydrate does not get fat (but it should not be consumed in excess) and yet gives constant energy, essential for our daily activities and also to maintain muscle mass.

Besides being a low glycemic carbohydrate, which is the main benefit of sweet potatoes, the food is also a source of fiber, vitamins and minerals.
