38. Instant Mashed Potatoes
The more processing foods go through, the higher their position on the glycemic index. For example, although many boxed mashed potatoes use real potato flakes, they are still several steps removed from a natural vegetable. As a result, instant mashed potatoes have an 87 + 3 GR.
So, to reduce the rate and still enjoy potatoes, switch to a spud that goes through fewer processing steps. Healthier alternatives include boiled sweet potatoes and yams.
