The rule is vegetables healthier if we eat it raw, it does not apply in all cases.
We bring you a list of foods that will be healthier if you cook them, and no less delicious.
Potatoes
Of course, it is difficult to consider fresh potatoes as a dish, and it is said to have a bad effect on health in the form of an increase in temperature. The most common way to prepare potatoes is frying, because we all love French fries. This is also not good, because potatoes have a lot of fiber and vitamins, and most of the good ingredients are preserved when you cook them with the skin!
Tomato
Cooking tomatoes provides more lycopene, especially when you cook them for 15-30 minutes together with olive oil. Raw tomatoes have only 4% lycopene, which is good for preventing heart disease and cancer.
Mushrooms
We rarely get mushrooms cooked in a restaurant, but they are much healthier that way. Some mushrooms can only be eaten after cooking. Cooked mushrooms extract many antioxidants and are also rich in fiber, vitamins C and D, potassium and iron.
Carrots
We like to snack on them, but carrots are much healthier cooked. The high percentage of beta carotene helps eyesight, and cooking breaks down the hardness of carrots and makes it easier for the body to digest.
Spinach
Eating spinach raw isn't a bad idea, and some say you get more vitamin C, niacin, and potassium this way than cooking it. However, cooking releases larger amounts of vitamins A and E, protein, fiber, zinc, calcium and iron. Also, cooking spinach releases beta carotene and lutein, which help preserve eyesight.
