Obviously, losses of vitamins depend on cooking time, temperature, and cooking method. Some vitamins are quite heat-stable, whereas others are heat-labile. From textbooks in nutrition, such as Kreutler et al. [1987], many other factors than heat can destroy (some) vitamins, such as: solubility in water, exposure to air (oxidation), exposure to light (UVs), heat, acid and alkaline solutions, storage losses, etc.

Yes, cooking does have an effect on the vitamin content of citrus fruits. By cooking the citrus fruits, you are removing the nutrients and vitamins (such as vitamin c) that is present in the fruit.

Yes. For example, raw vegetables have more nutrients than when they are cooked. When overcooked, they are robbed of nearly all their nutrients. However, don't go around eating raw meat.

We have to remember that during cooking, vitamins get evaporated or broken doen. So, usually cooking should be done in small vessels and quickly.

Does spinach contain vitamin K2?

Yes: One cup of canned spinach has about 1,000% of your RDA of vitamin K. Cooking veggies that are high in vitamin K seems to have no effect on the vitamin K content. The reason you don't see the vitamin K content on nutritiondata.com is because it is not required by the FDA - so they show the required listing of vitamins that a certain company has provided. For a person on blood thinners, misinformation about vitamin K can be deadly. Too much vitamin K will cause your INR to plummet, thereby rendering the blood thinners useless and increasing your chances of blood clots. You can find this information on plenty of other websites if you are so inclined. For example, a list of foods containing Vitamin K can be found in the Related Link, below.
