3. Raw veggies are more nutritious than cooked.
People love going on juice cleanses simply because it’s fresh and raw. These juices contain helpful enzymes when the fruit or vegetables are freshly squeezed, whereas anytime you heat produce above 118 degrees, these minerals are drained out.
However, what most people don’t know is that humans already make enough of these enzymes on their own, so those nutrients from the veggies are actually moot. Veggies are loaded with plenty of other vitamins and minerals that are never depleted from the plant, regardless of how high of a cooking temperature you use.
