PLEASE HELP! Dairy or fruit/veges

I reckon boiling the hell out of them will help them loose most nutrients yes - the fresher and less cookd they are the more nutrients they hold.... well that was what i was told too and although i love crisp veg ive now leaned towards to boiling "!

Yes the more veggies cook the more nutrients they lose. If you can boil to just crispy you are golden as far as cooked veggies go.

Growing up My grandmother and mother always said , steaming vegetables is always better, having them crisp is always better. The more you boil the vegetables the less 'nutritious' it is?

How true is this?
If i boil my vegetables, is that better for my sway ?

It's true, but the amount of difference is tiny when compared to the amount of nutrition in a prenatal vitamin or fortified foods!!
