At first glance, a healthy dish made from nutritious ingredients can be completely useless. All this happens due to heat treatment. That's why FoodOboz will tell you which foods should be eaten only raw, without frying or boiling.

Beets

Beets contain a lot of folic acid, which is very valuable for its benefits. But if you boil the vegetable for a long time, about 30% of this substance is lost. Therefore, it is best to boil the product just a little bit for cooking.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes contain very useful components such as magnesium and zinc. They disappear completely during heat treatment.

Bell pepper

Bell peppers contain an extremely high amount of vitamin C. But heat treatment destroys all the benefits of this product.

Garlic

Garlic is considered a very effective tool in the fight against various viruses. But only in its raw form. Fried garlic can only have a pleasant flavor.

Broccoli

In the case of this product, all the vitamins do not disappear completely, but only 40% of them remain.

Ginger

Ginger contains vitamins A, C, B1, B2. But just like garlic, heat treatment only spreads the flavor and destroys all the nutrients.
