I saw that, Bio. Now, I steam all the veggies that I put into my green smoothie. Interestingly, it doesn't seem to be the same with fruit.

But it was this article that got me excited. I sure do hope that it translates to humans... by a way... any other way... than fecal transplant. LOL!

Interesting information. I learned something new today.

Twice a week i do A HUGE raw brocolli shake into a blender with water.

I toss alot of brocolli into the blender and drink them raw.

I read numerous studies that show brocolli reduce estrogen from DIM.

Regardless, if you eat them raw, then you have to chew them well. It's appropriate processing one way or another

I have been reading over the last few years about the nutrients in lightly cooked veggies being more available to your body to digest then raw. Fried food s due to their effect on glycation would seem to be far less then ireal.

Man I can't believe I missed this thread!

I was always under the impression that it depends on the vegetable in terms of which is healthier between raw and cooked. I wish they told us which veggies were used in the study.

If this is in fact the case, this really sucks because I just toss raw veggies in my NutriBullet and drink them because I hate eating them. Cooking them would be really time consuming.

Best advice I was ever given in this sport (and this includes so many things): listen to your body.

Well, I never digested raw vegetables properly, always made me bloated as hell whatever it was... looks like those scientists confirmed the feeling I got from the message sent by my intestines!
