I did not know before that sweet potato leaves is a good source of Protein, Niacin, Calcium and Iron. From what I found out this is the only vegetable with iodine. It is also a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Manganese. It seems it can improve breast milk production for lactating mothers. In the Philippines , it is now a major ingredient of a commercially available food supplement drink . Old folks believe that it is a remedy which is used to treat diarrhea and dizziness. WOW!!
