Vitamins are a buzzword that makes everyone's ears prick up, because as soon as they're mentioned, you know it's a topic worth paying attention to. We all depend on vitamins because they are essential for our bodily functions.<\/p>\n
Vitamins are a buzzword that makes everyone's ears prick up, because as soon as they're mentioned, you know it's a topic worth paying attention to. We all depend on vitamins because they are essential for our bodily functions.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, there are many facts and factors relating to vitamins that are not particularly well known, but are very important. Only as much is known from specialist circles as seems to be absolutely necessary. This could be due to the fact that too much knowledge can damage the interests of industry and advertising. Did you know, for example, that vitamins are not very long-lasting? They are contained in fruit and vegetables, but the longer they are stored, the less useful they become.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Storage and cooking methods<\/strong><\/p>\n It can happen that an apple that has been forgotten in the vegetable drawer of the fridge still appears somewhat edible after a few weeks, as the cold has protected it from spoiling, but its vitamin content is likely to have dropped to such an extent that eating the apple is unlikely to give you any vitamins.<\/p>\n Some vitamins, such as vitamin A, are susceptible to light, heat and oxygen, so fruit or vegetables should not be stored for long periods and certainly not left cut in the air.<\/p>\n Vegetables are stored most gently when the temperature is between 4\u00baC and 10\u00baC, not below, as the temperature influences the ripening process.<\/p>\n If optimised, cooking can also ensure that the vitamin content of vegetables is preserved. If you choose quick cooking methods, such as steaming, the vitamins are preserved.<\/p>\n An enzyme called peroxidase is responsible for the degradation of vitamins during cooking. It causes vitamin C to break down at temperatures between 40\u00baC and 70\u00baC. It is therefore not recommended to cook vegetables in cold water on the hob, but rather to put them in boiling water first to minimise the loss of vitamins.<\/p>\n Incidentally, the water left over from cooking or steaming absorbs the vitamins that have been washed out, so it is more valuable for sauces and soups than fresh water.<\/p>\n Vitaminised finished products<\/strong><\/p>\n More and more convenience products advertise their vitamin content, but these are usually synthetically produced vitamins that are not of natural origin.<\/p>\n Although they are said to have the same nutritional value, they are still too unexplored to say with certainty that they are identical to their counterparts found in fruit and vegetables.<\/p>\n Freshly squeezed fruit juices are also often advertised, but if they are packaged in bottles, they also lose a large proportion of their vitamin content. Squeezing your own juice is definitely much more recommendable, and usually cheaper too.<\/p>\n The favourites among ready-made products should always be frozen products. The rapid freezing method used today means that the vitamins remain almost completely intact and the products can be stored for longer periods without any loss.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Vitamine sind ein Schlagwort, bei dem alle Ohren sich spitzen, denn so bald von ihnen die Rede ist, wei\u00df man, dass es sich um ein Thema handelt, dem man Beachtung schenken sollte.\u00a0 Wir alle h\u00e4ngen von Vitaminen ab, denn sie sind f\u00fcr unsere K\u00f6rperfunktionen unerl\u00e4sslich.
