Hallo Female - You may have to ask someone why they are eating some vegetables in the raw state, are even apply raw diet, eating foods that are not cooked (raw state). If in Japan may be used, but for most people who eat the food is always cooked, it may be a bit weird.
But you need to know also that there are some healthy foods eaten without cooking and some foods should be cooked first, then go eat. Well, what kind of foods categorized as 'better' raw 'and' better 'mature'? This is a list of some of these foods.
Red onions
You do not need to cook it too long, eating onions can be in a raw state. Red onions contain allicin phytonutrients which is lowering appetite. In addition, red onions also have more flavonoid called quercetin as an anti-inflammatory that is very good. Sauteed quite a while and it will spend more flavonoids in onions. Cook it too long it will eliminate nutrients in onions.
Broccoli
Brassica family vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, kale and sprouts are good foods eaten in a raw state or cooked, but of course you can not cook it too long. If cooked in hot temperatures, broccoli could lose enzyme myrosinase which can help cleanse the liver from toxins, or carcinogens cause cancer. Raw broccoli contains an enzyme called myrosinase which breaks down into sulforaphane, a compound that helps prevent cancer and stomach ulcers.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes are better eaten after cooking. Although it is often eaten in the raw state, but the lycopene content of tomatoes will be higher after exposure to hot temperatures. Lycopene is an antioxidant that is very good for the skin and prevent cancer. You can saute briefly and eat it.
Carrots
Better to be eaten in a raw state. If you want to eat in a mature state, Just cook in a minute and remove from heat. If it is too long to cook carrots, could disappear polyphenols and vitamin C that functions as a powerful antioxidant.
So, try cooking some of these foods properly in order to get better nutrition. There is no really good between cooked or eaten raw....
