What’s that one vegetable that is versatile and is almost a staple food in Indian (and many other) kitchens? You already know the answer: potatoes! It’s the higher Glycemic Index of regular potatoes, which undermines all the good qualities of the potato.
Wouldn’t it be a blessing for all of us if there were such an option of a “healthy potato”? We are not talking about a healthy alternative to potatoes but a healthier potato with unique varietal attributes, which is naturally grown. SV Agri brings to you India’s first lower Glycemic Index potato – ‘CARISMA’ Potato.
Carisma potatoes also taste good due to their creamier texture and ‘melt-in-mouth’ experience. Carisma Potatoes are the logical choice for everyone who absolutely loves the versatile vegetable.
To understand exactly how SV Agri’s Carisma Potatoes are healthier, you need to understand the effect of Glycemic Index (GI) on food items. Foods with higher GI release glucose more rapidly into blood, causing blood sugar level to spike. On the other hand, foods with lower GI release glucose into the blood slowly and steadily and prevent a sudden spike in blood sugar levels. This means that low-GI foods are suitable for those with diabetes as well as for those looking to keep a healthier lifestyle. What’s more - according to the GI Foundation, Australia, "Carisma Potatoes are actually recommended for pregnant women due to their low GI as it promotes better growth of the baby." Carisma Potatoes also have lower carbohydrates than the majority of our regular potatoes. Sounds almost like a superfood, doesn’t it?
If you take a closer look at your daily nutrition and health through the food you eat, Carisma Potatoes would be a great option because they are also rich in Potassium and Vitamin C content. They’re also not genetically modified, but instead are a natural variety, bred in the Netherlands and cultivated by farmers across India. All of these combined, make Carisma potatoes the best, logical option. Now potato lovers have a guilt-free choice in Carisma potatoes, and with added benefits!
