Here are some fruits and vegetables you should cook and those you should eat raw

Registered dietitians say carrots, for example, should always be cooked, because this process releases more beta-carotene.

Shahzadi Devje, a registered dietitian based in Toronto, adds she always advises her clients to avoid over-cooking vegetables, especially in too much water.

“This diminishes their nutritional value and they become tasteless and fade before your very eyes,” she says. “Instead, I would encourage steaming, blanching or sautéing vegetables lightly until tender-crisp to help retain colour, nutrition and taste.”
