Myth/Fact: Microwaves Can Damage Nutrient Content in Food

Tue, 9 Aug 2022
Apparently, the microwave can damage the nutrients in food is a myth, yes #friendspramita. In fact, besides being relatively fast, heating or cooking food with a microwave is believed to be able to maintain the integrity of the nutritional content of the food.

The main cause of wasted food nutrition or nutrition is actually too long cooking time. For example, boiling vegetables for five minutes is more likely to reduce their nutritional value, when compared to cooking vegetables in the microwave for two minutes. That's because some of the nutrients leak out of the food into the water, when vegetables are boiled.
