Daly City, CA | September 27, 2010 2:34pm. My Trustee's lawyer sent me a waiver to finalize my deceased parent's Trust because my siblings whom I do not get along with want to get assets and money to them quickly, my only problem is I want to see EVERY thing on paper in terms of accounting and what the money has been or is being spent on.
All potatoes actually contain low levels of natural toxins called glycoalkaloids. The toxins are produced by the potato in response to stress, which is green potatoes, which have been exposed to UV light, can contain high levels. Potatoes that have a lot of bruising, sprouts or eyes, or that taste bitter may also have high levels of toxins. Green potatoes really can make you sick. Glycoalkaloids can cause severe stomachache and even death, in rare cases, and it's not destroyed by cooking.
Apparently baking your sweet potatoes wonât completely rid them of creepy chemicals, so I guess Iâll make sure that any I ingest are free from signs of disease. And Iâll probably skip the skins. For more info, you can check out the Handbook of Natural Toxin s (1983), which is on Google Books. Everything Iâve read has been âsweet potato, sweet potato, sweet potato.â âToxicants Occuring Naturally in Foodsâ mentions that yams donât make these chemicals when moldy, but they didnât include a citation for it. 2  I donât even think Iâve ever eaten a true yam, though.
