Cooking fruit will lose some nutrients. The reason for this is the following：

Boiled fruit is easy to lose some water-soluble vitamins and some active enzymes and other nutrients, such as vitamin C and B vitamins, protease, amylase and so on. The lost vitamins cannot be used by the body, and the active enzymes lose the decomposition of food after heating, which weakens the function of helping food digestion.

Suitable for people who eat ripe fruit:

1, people with weak gastrointestinal function: When the fruit is cooked, eating it can reduce the coolness of the fruit, soften the dietary fiber and reduce the irritation to the stomach.

2, people with cold constitution: eating a lot of cold fruits often aggravates the body cold and causes physical discomfort. You can choose to eat cooked fruits.

Fruits that can be eaten while hot.

1, little tomato

The content of lycopene will increase rapidly after heating, thus improving the nutritional value of tomato and enhancing its overall antioxidant capacity. The contents of lycopene and antioxidant can be increased by 54% and 28% respectively as long as they are heated for two minutes (boiling in water or microwave).

2. Jujube

Jujube has a good tonic, nourishing blood and calming the nerves. Steamed jujube is easier to digest than raw jujube, so people with weak spleen and stomach function can put jujube in a bowl and eat it directly after steaming. For people with deficiency of both qi and blood and deficiency of liver and kidney, you can also steam Chinese dates with medlar and eggs.

3. Apple

Pectin contained in apples has a good detoxification effect and can be used with dietary fiber to clean the intestines. Pectin will become more stable after heating, and it also has the function of "absorbing intestinal bacteria and toxins".

4, grapefruit skin

Pomelo peel contains flavonoids such as naringin and rutin, which has antioxidant effect and can reduce blood viscosity. When it enters the body after heating, it will be more active and exert its greatest effect.

5.pierce

Pears can moisten the lungs and relieve cough, but pears are cold. After the cooked pear is cooled, the pear skin will become slightly bitter, and the effect of moistening the lungs will be completely released. Lignin in pear seeds originally belongs to insoluble fiber, but it will dissolve in the intestine after heating, and harmful cholesterol will be taken out of the body.

6. orange

Orange peel contains narcotine and orange peel oil, which has antitussive and expectorant effects. These two ingredients will only come out of the orange peel after cooking. Especially suitable for children with chronic cough.
