Wouldn’t it be nice if the nutrition fairy would come into our lives and say “Here, feed this to your kids and they will grow up healthy”?
But we know that nutrition is more than just ingredients, it’s also about the preparation and preservation of your food. Did you ever think you might actually be cooking away precious vitamins and antioxidants? Research* shows that traditional cooking methods such as boiling, frying and microwaving can actually leach away valuable nutrients from food, which means the eight servings a day you’re striving for might actually only have half the nutritional benefits you thought. Seems a terrible waste of antioxidants.
