• Carbohydrates• Protein• Vitamins• Minerals• Fat (little amount)• water

Minerals losses
• Squeezing of vegetables after boil.• Soaking in water after thin slice• Parching, • Frying and • Stewing.
![Page 15: how to reduce valuable nutrients lo](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032503/55c0cf33bb61eba2758b45df/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How to reduce these losses When peeling the skin of
vegetables do peel as thinly as possible.
Do not cut vegetables into very small cubes as each small part comes in contact with oxygen, destroying vitamins
Do not soak vegetables if you must soak, use up the soaking water to knead dough, prepare soups and gravies.
![Page 16: how to reduce valuable nutrients lo](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032503/55c0cf33bb61eba2758b45df/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Do eat with skin on whenever possible.
Salads should be prepared just before serving and should be served in closed dishes to avoid excessive exposure to air.
Do not throw away the excess water drained after boiling of vegetables

Cooking methods
• Waterless cooking, • Pressure cooking,• Steaming, stir-frying and • Microwaving are
least destructive of nutrients.

The fresher the better.
Consume fresh as you can because fresh
vegetables contain more nutrients as
compared to cook vegetables
