Most people assume raw = healthiest, but that’s not always true. Certain nutrients actually become more powerful when you cook them the right way 👇 🔥 Tomatoes: Cooking increases lycopene, a heart-healthy antioxidant. 🥦 Broccoli: Light steaming boosts sulforaphane, a compound that supports detox and lowers inflammation. 🥕 Veggies: Cooking breaks down plant cell walls, making vitamins and minerals easier for your body to absorb. 🫒 Healthy fats: Adding olive oil or avocado oil helps your body absorb fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K. ⚠️ But the method matters. Steaming, roasting, and sautéing keep more nutrients than boiling, which can cause vitamins to leach out. Bottom line: Raw isn’t always better. Cooking the right way can actually help your body get more from your food.
