No part of the potato plant should be consumed unless we are talking about the actual tubers. The Berries that sometimes grow from the flowers are highly toxic and have led to some domestic animal deaths, as they have an extremly high glycoalkaloid levels.

Do potatoes give people strength?
On the Internet I couldn't find if they do. However I did see that body builders eat the white parts of an egg. The white parts make you strong. I your going to try this it says that they buy a packet of 12 eggs. Then boil them, don't fry them because too much fat goes on the egg and you want to stay in shape. After boiling the 12 eggs peel the egg yoke from the white part of the egg. DO NOT eat the yellow egg yoke 12 times it can make you sick. I you do lots of exercise during the day like body builders. If you don't then just don't eat them incase. However the yellow part makes you smarter like fish oil so perhaps you want to be smarter too.

Is it okay to give a horse cooked potato skin?
If there is not a lot of grease or additives and spices that could upset his stomach I see no reason why he can't have a cooked potato skin. But remember, everything in moderation. If your horse is not used to eating things like this it's best to keep it to a minimum.
Is it okay to eat mashed potato that was out over night?
Definitely not. Ever hear of Botulism? Potatoes and any other cooked vegetable including carrots, beets, etc. should be cooled and refrigerated immediately. Botulism is not a pretty thing nor does it feel good.

Botulism has absolutely nothing to do with why food left overnight should or should not be eaten. Clostridium Botulinum is an anaerobic organism. It grows where NO oxygen is present. This happens in poorly canned foods NOT food left on a counter or stove top. There are OTHER bacteria that grow in the presence of oxygen that can cause food poisoning. Very hot food should NOT be IMMEDIATELY refrigerated. Rapid cooling of the outside of the food can leave a "hot pocket" in the center where the offending bacteria can happily grow.
