Vegetables are one of the main sources of vitamins needed by the body. Colored vegetables are rich in vitamins. However, many people in life will eat vitamin supplements to supplement their diets when they eat less vegetables. Others think that vegetables are rich in vitamins. If you eat more vegetables, you do not need to eat vitamin preparations at all.
As we all know, vegetables, especially colored vegetables, are rich in vitamins. Vegetables are one of the main sources of vitamins needed by the body. In life, many people supplement their diet with vitamin supplements when they eat less vegetables. Many people think that vegetables are rich in vitamins, so long as they consume enough vegetables, there is no need to eat vitamin preparations. Dr. Wang Xiaoxi of the Department of Nutrition of Xiangya Hospital believes that these two views are one-sided because vegetables and vitamins cannot substitute each other.
On the one hand, vitamins cannot replace vegetables. This is because the vitamins in vegetables are natural ingredients that exist in a certain proportion, and vitamin preparations are mostly artificially synthesized, and the two are different in nature. Vegetables are a collection of multivitamins, and vitamin preparations are mostly single. Although some vegetables are not vitamins, but the role of the human body is similar to vitamins, such as bioflavonoids, chlorophyll, so the role of vegetables in health is more comprehensive. Of course, vegetables also contain non-vitamin nutrients such as minerals, trace elements, carbohydrates, and cellulose. Therefore, it is almost impossible to use vitamins instead of vegetables. When eating less vegetables, taking vitamin C or taking other vitamins at the same time is only an expedient measure. In terms of obtaining balanced and balanced nutrition, eating vegetables and fruits is more important than eating vitamins.
On the other hand, vegetables cannot substitute for vitamin preparations. This is because: First, not all vegetables are rich in vitamin C. Unless you carefully choose green, red and purple vegetables and fruits, it will be difficult to meet the daily requirement of 100 mg of vitamin C. Second, vitamin C is water-soluble, so when the vegetables are washed, it is easy to lose; Vitamin C is afraid of high temperature, cooking temperature is too high or the heating time is too long, such as stews, casseroles, etc., vegetables, vitamin C will be a lot of damage Vitamin C is also easily oxidized by oxygen in the air. The longer the storage of fruits and vegetables, the more vitamin C is lost. Therefore, unless the correct cooking method is used, even if the above-mentioned colored vegetables are selected, it is difficult to satisfy the needs of the human body every day. Therefore, in addition to relying on foods, the proper intake of vitamins has certain health effects.
