However, there are several types of vegetables that, when cooked, are more beneficial for the human body.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, cook and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova is ready to list 5 such vegetables.
Which vegetables are healthier when cooked?
The first such vegetable is pumpkin. If you stew it or make porridge with it, the body will receive a double portion of vitamins A and E, as well as antioxidants.
Carrots are also useful in their cooked form. After heat treatment, the vegetable contains more vitamin A, which is necessary for vision, strengthening nails, etc.
Tomatoes are also more beneficial when they are cooked. After cooking, the amount of antioxidants in them increases significantly.
It is also useful to eat cooked asparagus, rich in vitamin E and folic acid. They stimulate kidney function and prevent swelling.
And finally, it is not recommended to eat mushrooms raw, since after heat treatment the harmful toxic substance agaritine, which is present in their composition, is destroyed.
