Don’t cut up your carrots: Boiling them whole increases their anti-cancer benefits
Cooking carrots whole before chopping them up boosts their anti-cancer properties by 25 per cent, researchers say.
Leaving the vegetable intact prevents valuable nutrients from being easily washed away into the water, claim scientists.
As an added bonus, boiling unchopped carrots also makes them taste better, they said.
They can then be chopped up once cooked without loss of nutrients.
Ik snij de wortels altijd in stukken voor het koken…. nu ga ik ze dus voortaan heel koken en dan pas snijden :cheer:
