Peeling or not fruits and vegetables

alain23

Hello,

There is a new post about a subject I really like : nutrition

In one of my last message I wrote that we have to peel fruits and vegetables. Well maybe it mas not right. I think it depends on the situation. If our immune system is weak we have to cook them anyway (1), so

I am not sure that peeling will be useful. But anyway if your immune system is weak or not, it depends on many things.

The skin contains interesting nutriments but can also contain pesticids. So it depends if they contains pesticids or not according to the kinf of agriculture.I also read that if we must peel, we have to do thin peels to loose less nutriments.

Anyway we have to ask our medical team if we have to peel or not.

Have a nice evening

(1) I read that cooking with steam is the best way to preserve nutriments. But ask your medical team if it's ok to kill all the bacterias and how much time it takes
