Abstract

Food is cooked to make it more appetizing and/or make it safe to eat. When food is heated there will be a reduction in heat labile nutrients and if liquid is used soluble nutrients may be lost.

Examples of the effect of cooking on the retention and availability of some nutrients have been discussed.
