Researchers from the United States found out what is the harm eating raw vegetables for the body. About the results of the study narrated in Nature Microbiology.
Rachel Carmody, Associate Professor of the Department of Biology evolution, reported that cooked food is much more nutrients. This hypothesis was confirmed by a group of scientists. during an experiment on mice. Rodents were divided into separate groups that fed different types of foods. Some were fed raw or cooked meat, others thermally processed or raw vegetables.
It turned out that in the groups where they were given raw or processed meat, the difference between rodents is small. And in rodents, which gave raw vegetables and heat treated significantly differed intestinal microflora. Those rodents that consumed processed vegetables had significantly more beneficial bacteria in the intestines than raw foodists. At the same time, rodents consuming raw vegetables lost fast in weight and were more lethargic.
A similar experiment was conducted in humans, which showed those same results as on rodents.
This study does not mean that from the consumption of raw vegetables need to be discarded, since it is known that beneficial substances in thermally unprocessed vegetables are much more, therefore, the total should be in moderation. Yes, and it’s hard now to find in modern society a person who would only eat raw vegetables.
ESOREITER previously talked about the benefits of heat treatment. vegetables and fruits.
