Boiled fruit can contain less Vitamin C for a couple reasons. The first reason is damage to the Vitamin C chemical structure. Heat easily destroys Vitamin C. The boiling of fruit introduces the Vitamin C to heat. The second reason is leeching. When you cook using "wet" methods (cooking procedures using water or other liquid) the vitamins and minerals can literally leak out of the fruit and into the surrounding water/liquid.
