The truth tells you:

In fact, vitamin C is the most easily lost when fruits are heated. Other nutrients are basically not lost due to heating, and the vitamin C content in most fruits is not high.

With apples? For example, an apple can't even reach 10% of the daily vitamin C requirement. Elements such as potassium and magnesium and nutrients such as pectin and cellulose will not be lost by heating, while some polyphenols that are beneficial to the body will only cause partial loss.

If you don't rely on this cooked fruit as the main source of vitamin C, then cooked fruit will not have any impact on your body, and people with bad stomach can eat it with confidence.

However, it is worth noting that ripe fruit is more easily absorbed, because the cell wall of ripe fruit is destroyed, which will accelerate the body's absorption of sugar, so it is easy to cause blood sugar fluctuations. People with high blood sugar must be vigilant. In addition, fruits with high vitamin C content such as monkey peach, orange and grapefruit should be eaten raw.

So, which fruits are more suitable for cooking? 1. grapefruit
