Event Details

Heart Health on Feb. 15 @ 11AM will feature sweet potato fries prepared using an air-fryer.

Sweet potatoes can help improve heart health by helping to regulate blood pressure. They are a good source of potassium and magnesium.[2] Sweet potatoes are also low on the glycemic index, which means they won't raise your blood sugar as quickly as high-GI foods.[3] Research shows that sweet potatoes can lower your LDL "bad" cholesterol, which may lower your odds of heart problems.
