Do cooked vegetables have nutrition?!


Question:

Do cooked vegetables have nutrition?

I'm asian so about 99.9% of the veges I eat are cooked: bok choy, dark leafed vegatables boiled, mostly stir fried in wok.


Answers:

Steaming and lightly stir-frying are good ways to cook veggies without losing all the nurtients. Boiling is not. You should eat both raw and cooked veggies as some substances are more readily used by your body in their raw form and some (like the lycopene in tomatoes) is more available in cooked veggies.
