6 tips to help you eat more nutritiously

　　■Don’t store vegetables for too long

　　If fresh vegetables are bought and stored at home and not eaten in time, they will slowly lose some nutrients over time. For example, if spinach is left at 20°C for one day, the loss of vitamin C will be as high as 84%. The correct way to preserve vegetables is to store them in a dark, ventilated, and dry place.

　　■Rinse before cutting vegetables

　　Studies have found that when people wash and cut vegetables, if they cut the vegetables first and then rinse them, a large amount of nutrients will be lost into the water. Therefore, in order to preserve as much nutrients as possible, one should develop a good habit of washing vegetables first and then cutting them.
