Vegetables are the food we all need to eat every day. Vegetables are rich in various nutrients, which supplement the vitamins and energy needed by our body. However, many people will ignore the nutritional value of vegetables. For example, our kids use a small fire to fry vegetables, such as eating vegetables without soup. Let's see some mistakes in eating vegetables.
1、 Long standing vegetables
Office workers usually like to make a big purchase once a week, and store the purchased vegetables at home to eat slowly. Although this saves time and convenience, it is necessary to know that a large number of nutrients will be lost for every extra day of storage of vegetables, such as spinach. Under normal conditions (20 ℃) every day of storage, the loss of vitamin C is as high as 84%.
Therefore, the storage time of vegetables should be minimized. If the storage should also choose dry, ventilated, dark place.
2、 Lose the most vitamins
Some people's habitual vegetable processing methods also affect the content of nutrients in vegetables. For example, some people throw away the bean petals in order to eat the sprouts of bean sprouts. In fact, the vitamin C content of bean petals is 2~3 times more than that of bean sprouts.
For example, when making dumpling stuffing, squeeze out the vegetable juice, and the vitamin will also lose more than 70%. The right way is to cut the vegetables and mix them with oil, then add salt and seasoning. In this way, there is not so much soup for the dumpling filling.
3、 Stir fried vegetables
Vitamin C and B1 are all afraid of heat. Therefore, stir fry vegetables to avoid using a small fire stuffy, should be used to stir fry. Moreover, adding a little vinegar is also good for vitamin preservation.
Some vegetables are more suitable for salad, such as cucumber, tomato and so on.
4、 When the food is ready, don't eat it right away
Many people like to warm the food in the pot or put it in the heat preservation barrel after cooking, and then eat it for a while. In this way, a lot of nutrients will be lost. Imagine, it's a pity that the hard-earned meal will become non nutritious because it's not eaten immediately.
5、 Eating without soup
When cooking, a lot of nutrients in vegetables are dissolved in vegetable soup. It's a pity not to drink too much.
6、 Cut the vegetables first and then wash them
The chef in the canteen often cuts vegetables first and then rinses them together for convenience. Many people don't think so. In fact, doing so will make a lot of vitamins flow into the water.
7、 Preference for stir fried vegetables
Many people who lose weight believe that frying meat and vegetables together can reduce fat intake. In fact, vegetables are easier to absorb fat.
8、 To eat vegetarian food without meat
Nowadays, there are more and more vegetarians. Although it is beneficial to prevent arteriosclerosis, it is not right to eat vegetarian food
One is that people must take a certain amount of cholesterol from meat every day. Proper amount of cholesterol is also conducive to cancer prevention.
Second, simple vegetarian diet will lead to insufficient protein intake, which is easy to cause gastrointestinal cancer. Third, vitamin B2 intake is insufficient. Fourth, due to the common lack of zinc in vegetables, vegetarians are also prone to serious zinc deficiency.
A better way is to eat with your body characteristics. It can not only achieve the effect of vegetarianism, but also avoid the damage of vegetarianism to the body.
9、 Raw vegetables are not washed
Now vegetable pollution is more and more serious, there are all kinds of pesticide and parasitic bacteria residues, so it is better to wash and peel raw vegetables.
