Which is more beneficial raw food or cooked
There have been many debates about the benefits of eating vegetables raw or cooked. No matter what the food group, it is largely claimed that eating food raw increases the amount of nutrients. While for some vegetables and meats this can be true, it is not necessarily the case for all.
There have been many studies that indicate cooking tomatoes actually increases the amount of Lycopene. Lyocopene is the red tint that adorns tomatoes, watermelons, papaya, etc. It is generally known for decreasing your chances of a heart attack and certain cancers. So while some people will tell you to stay raw with your diet, you can actually benefit from cooking your tomatoes.
The same is known for cooked carrots, spinach, mushrooms, and peppers. The amount of Carotenoids, the natural pigment found in plants that is said to decrease chronic illness, is supplied to the body more when cooked than eaten raw.
In conclusion, there are benefits for both. Add variety to your diet by switching it up, eating raw and cooked, to get the maximum benefits they can offer you. No matter which route you take, supplying your body with nutritious foods like vegetables, cooked or uncooked, still offer health benefits for overall wellness.
