    Abstract : With its high concentration in starch and vitamins (C, B1 and B2), the potato, cooked in water, is a very interesting source of energy. Unfortunately, it also contains natural toxins: the glycoalkaloids. Their variable amount can depend, in particular, on different environmental factors. This paper summarizes these factors effects and the glycoalcaloids toxicology
