Over cooking of foods can destroy vitamins in foods. Even the preservatives used in canned food destroy the vitamins. So try to use fresh/frozen fruits and vegetables instead of canned ones. Also do not over cook vegetables. Washing vegetables is a smart idea but do not wash vegetables after cutting them. While eating fruits like apples do do not remove the skin as the pectin is found in skin. Instead of using canned beans, soak the dried beans for 12 hours and boil them. It is a tedious work but you if you want to eat "good food", it needs some hard work to please your stomach..
