Effect of heat on leafy vegetables?
Yes. Heat can destroy nutrients in all vegetables. The only vegetable, also known as a fruit, that does not loose nutrients is tomatoes. The longer the vegetables are cooked, the more nutrients are lost. The nutrients are lost through the water its steamed in, and the steam itself. Raw is best, but if you must cook them, cook until slightly tender, where some nutrients are still there.
