The potatoe, or patato, or papa, in the case of the sweet variety of potato, yams, or yama or kamara, is a starchy, tuberous crop from the perennial nightshade Solanum tuberosum (standard strain from Andes). The word “potato” may refer either to the plant itself or to the edible tuber that is believed to have originated in the Andes mountains four centuries back. The potato today is a staple food throughout the world, just behind wheat, rice and corn. They say that the leaves of the plant are toxic I haven’t noticed much of a toxin though.

I selected potatoes for the starters Nutritional Diversity in part because they are cheap, they are popular, they are easy to get, and easy to grow. Strong cultures have depended on them, and paled in their absence. Potatoes are a super-food, and have super-food aspects to them especially seen to it’s growers. The starchy tuber is one of the only plants like it I mention in ND text, like the cassava plant whose leaves are also said to contain toxins, but in small amounts, up to ten hands a day, I have found them to be a very potent super food.

Potato Nutrition

The potato is a super food carbohydrate for excellent energy. It is packed with minerals and vitamins, and specific ones that support testosterone production – a production that should be a key focus of human optimization. You will see the potato’s elements on the side of about every workout supplement for that reason; vitamin B₆ (10% of daily need) and trace amounts of thiamine, riboflavin, folate, niacin, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and zinc, all potatoes are a great source of. The bargain gym diet remains largely rice, pasta and chicken, where it should be potatoes, and chicken, also two items you can grow yourself and get the other super food chicken eggs out of it too. Chicken and ricer-s will definitely do yourselves a favor buy grabbing a bag of potatoes next time around, and even if your on a super budget, go ahead and switch half that days rice and pastas consumption to potato in a compromise. Upgrade always, I say.

Like plantains, bananas, ginger, avocado, and cassava tuber, potatos are medicinal foods for the colon. Treatment of digestive track is key especially for folks who have done a lot of damage with coffee, or other high acid, or alcoholic consumption.

Those trying to stay on a low glycemic diet, (1) maybe hurting themselves, (2) if are that sure of themselves, they may shy from potatoes as they are somewhat high on the glycemic index.

As an avid student of our world nature and nutrition myself I can’t help but notice the relationship between potato’s and strong, town cultures. Through DNA and other testing it has been thought the tuber food was first domesticated in the Andes Mountains regions now called Bolivia and Chile. This region is also where a super human model you could say ran the mountain tops, relaying important information to the Incan Rulers.

Chasqui, Chaski or Chaskis, were runners, in a pony express sort of relay system with trails and rest shacks from the B.C.’s to the 1600 AD’s, and were able to move quickly through rough terrains and rope bridges. It is not known weather every member of the society participated in this function or just a select few dedicated athletes, but the runners could move messages over 240km (155 miles) per day on foot without horse. They used a modified conch shell trumpet to signal the next runner resting at his chaski-wasi, resting place telling him to prepare to run, which indicates these were non stop runners who took a lot of pride in their athletic ability and performance. These guys were true masters of their arts and their world, who created quality rope bridges, which many of them still stand today able to be walked across regularly.

Potato’s are also staples to the fighting Irish and the other fighting giants in that part of world. Potatoes have made their way into a staple for most worldly cultures and diets – and I would say that’s a strong crop dynamic also.

Potatoes are good for the bones, the blood, and collagen production to boot. They are even high in Vitamin C, keeping off infectious elements, and helping the absorption of other vitamins into the system.

Potato’s are a good balancing food which means they bring healthy proportions of body masses into better balance.

Medicinal Use of Potato

The iron, phosphorous, calcium, magnesium, and zinc in potatoes all contribute to the building and maintenance of bone structure and strength. The potato’s fiber, potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 content, coupled with its lack of cholesterol, all support heart health.

Colon

Use plantains, potatos, ginger, and avocados to prevent and to treat colon problems. The high fiber content keep the bowl traffic at pace, another reason I highly recommend them for Nutritional Diversity’s and diet plans.

A Lower Blood Pressure & LDL (bad) Cholesterol Food

Potatoes may help lower blood pressure for several reasons. Victoria Jarzabkowski, a nutritionist with the Fitness Institute of Texas at The University of Texas at Austin, said that the fiber found in potatoes can help lower cholesterol by binding with cholesterol in the blood. “After it binds, we excrete it,” she said.

Please remember that the strongest potato is going to come from a permaculture, hopefully your own, and also remember that potatos from the grocery store are likely high in gyphosate – Roundup sprays, and poisons, which most Americans today test positive for cancer causing levels of these toxins.

Permaculture

Potato plants are strong, aggressive perennials that grow about 60 cm (24 in) high, depending on variety, with the leaves dying back after flowering, fruiting and tuber formation. They bear white, pink, red, blue, or purple flowers with yellow stamens, much like passion fruit grows. In general, the tubers (root system parts) of varieties with white flowers have white skins, while those of varieties with colored flowers tend to have pinkish skins.

A cool season crop the maximum tuber formation occurs when soil temperature is 60 F to 70 F and the tuber formation stops when soil temperature hits 80 F. Mulching soil with straw or other organic matter can help reduce soil temperature. Research has shown that maintaining a 6-inch-thick “till-less” straw layer around potatoes keeps soil temperatures 10 degrees lower. Potatoes are sensitive to drought so be sure to keep plants consistently moist, especially when plants flower and right after, since this is the peak time when tubers are forming.

Potatoes are mostly cross-pollinated by insects such as bumblebees, which carry pollen from other potato plants, though a substantial amount of self-fertilizing occurs as well. Tubers form in response to decreasing day length, although this tendency has been minimized in commercial varieties. Potato can grow well in many different climates.

Potatoes grow fine in boxes or 5 gallon buckets, making them a great member to aquaponics and other home permaculture growing or urban based residential growing systems.

Potato mono-crops like all mono crops have been historically susceptible and open to diseases and crop wipe-outs.

Just a few months ago two GMO potato species have been approved by the USFDA for production. So it’s important to start getting your potato crop together now.

GYM EDGE

Chicken and ricer-s will definitely do yourselves a favor buy grabbing a bag of potatoes instead of the one of rice or pasta.

Consume with avocados in the afternoon and evening times, and without for breakfast or morning times. As always GYM EDGERS should be breaking up their portions to one bite /heaping tablespoon of food per every ten pounds of body weight per increment or eating session. Remember you will get the best edge, getting from a small permaculture farm. They are out there and it’s a heavy switch.

Those of you on a ketogenic diet, are likely to pass this up. Those of you looking to stack on muscle, want to put this in.

Better Supplement Taking

Powdered supplements can bind with real foods in smoothies, and soak and process better this way.

Why Powdered Supplements Bind and Work Better with Real Foods in Smoothies

Powdered supplements are often isolated compounds — vitamins, minerals, amino acids, adaptogens, enzymes, proteins, etc. — that are highly concentrated but not always naturally bioavailable on their own. Meaning: your body might not absorb or utilize them as efficiently unless they are delivered in a more natural, whole-food matrix.

What Happens When You Blend Supplements into Real-Food Smoothies

You Create a Natural “Carrier Matrix”
Real foods — fruits, vegetables, seeds, and roots — are rich in enzymes, fibers, fats, and natural cofactors that help escort nutrients through digestion.
When powdered supplements are blended into these foods, the compounds get absorbed into the moisture, the fibers, and the fats of the smoothie, mimicking how nutrients appear in nature. This improves uptake.
You Pre-Hydrate and Activate the Powdered Compounds
Powders in dry form are inert. When you soak or blend them into liquids (especially with plant enzymes), you start the breakdown process. This makes the nutrients more “bioactive,” or ready to be absorbed, especially in the gut.
You Reduce Digestive Stress
Isolated powders can sometimes be harsh — especially on empty stomachs. But when mixed with food, the digestive system treats the whole mixture more like a meal, not a foreign chemical. This allows for smoother digestion and better assimilation.
You Enhance Synergy
Some nutrients need companions to be absorbed properly:
- Fat-soluble vitamins (like A, D, E, K) absorb better when fat is present (like from coconut, nuts, seeds)
- Minerals like magnesium and zinc are better absorbed with amino acids or acids (like lemon, greens, or fruit acids)
- Protein and adaptogens are more effective when metabolized slowly alongside real fiber and phytonutrients
So, adding your powdered supplement to a smoothie enhances the synergy of multiple nutrients working together — just like nature intended.

HEY!!! CLEAN WATER IS NUMBER 1!!!

Example: Jungle Juice Style Smoothie

Water or coconut water
1 scoop powdered supplement (diverse formula)
Banana or papaya (enzymes + potassium)
Wild greens or herbs (cofactors, chlorophyll) [!!HIGH DIVERSITY!!]
Seeds or nut butter (healthy fats for absorption) (lectins [i] destroyed if pressure-cooked, powdered, or buttered in seeds)
Splash of citrus or vinegar (acid for mineral absorption) (or not)
Blend = Bioactive powerhouse

Bottom Line:

Powdered supplements are just the start. The real alchemy happens when they bind with real food.

Blending them into smoothies:

Mimics natural digestion
Enhances bioavailability
Boosts effectiveness
Reduces stress on the gut
Unlocks the full potential of the formula

You’re not just taking a supplement.
You’re feeding your body intelligently.

A New Age of Nutrition Is Here

Most nutritionists don’t know how nutrition is actually cultivated in nature.
They don’t understand ecosystems — they understand isolated compounds.
They don’t build vitality — they prescribe boxes.

Much like modern agriculture, today’s nutrition field is dominated by shortcuts and chemicals. Synthetic vitamins, mass-produced crops, sterile soils, and monoculture mindsets. These systems cheat nature — and nature always pushes back.

The consequences?
Wrecked soil. Broken guts. Fragile immune systems. A sick planet and a sick population.
Not just humans — but animals, microbes, insects, and even fungi are caught in the backlash.

We Are Building a Better Way

At Nutritional Diversity, we don’t accept that.
We’ve outperformed mainstream systems — in the jungle, in the gym, in healing, in every measure that counts.

We are now entering the supplement space not to compete… but to replace.
We will use today’s manufacturing only as a bridge — our long-term mission is to build a completely new:

Sourcing network
Cultivation ecosystem
Ingredient preparation system
Manufacturing + probiotic delivery model

Rooted in nature’s complexity, not synthetic simplicity. [i]

From Monocultures to Permacultures

We are converting monoculture zones into regenerative permaculture ecosystems,
restoring biodiversity and unlocking the real medicine — nutrient-dense, wild-aligned food.

We’re not just making supplements.
We’re starting a nutritional revolution that frees people from the centrally controlled food system — one capsule, one field, and one mind at a time.

Join the Movement

This isn’t just about health.
It’s about reconnection.
To the soil.
To the body.
To the Source.

We are recruiting new souls to the love we were separated from.
Our vision is enormous — and enormously important.

Let’s build it.
Together.

ABSTRACT:

We could make an extreme picot go down the path of ecological enhancement and create an Avatar Movie-like wonderland paradise.
We could come up with an easy-to-make one-issue voter system to where we can take a fingerprint and multi-source verified vote on issues like involvement in conflicts, or new agriculture projects such as a Department of Nature, or genius Diodynamic farming proposals.
We could go down the path of industry, tech advancement, interstellar endeavors, and exterior adventures.
We could continue to go down the path of selfishness, war, and ego.
