These vegetables are best eaten cooked

Nutritionists have called vegetables that are healthier cooked

Many people think that healthier fresh vegetables nothing. In fact, it is not.

For example, tomatoes, according to nutritionists, there are more useful after they are thoroughly warmed. These vegetables after heat treatment increases the content of lycopene – an antioxidant substances, neutralizing dangerous free radicals that cause cancer.

“After roasting or boiling for 15 minutes in boiling water, the level of lycopene increases with the tomatoes in half. And tomato paste, for which tomatoes are boiled at least 45 minutes, lycopene is already 20 times more than fresh fruit,” stated the scientists.

Also cooked be healthier than broccoli or cauliflower. But to cook them it takes less than 5 minutes, otherwise the use of these vegetables will not do.

Boiled carrots are also better than raw, because after high temperature treatment are beginning to become more active substances, which improve vision, said the doctors.

“Boiled vegetables becomes less toxins by which plants defend themselves from parasites,” added the doctors.
