The dark and blue colors shown are all starch contained inside a sweet potato. However, these starches are actually called resistant starches because they aren't fully broken down. 

The intestinal bacteria in our body actually change this into short-chain fatty acids, which can lead to less blood fats, less release of insulin, better digestion, and much more!
