The vitamin most readily destroyed by heat is – (1) Riboflavin (2) Ascorbic acid (3) Tocopherol (4) Thiamine

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) Ascorbic acid Explanation: Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is the most easily destroyed vitamin. It is destroyed by oxygen, heat (above 70 degrees) and it leaks out into the cooking water because it is a water soluble vitamin. To preserve vitamin C in food, citrus fntits, tomatoes, juices, broccoli, green peppers, cantaloupe and strawberries should be stored in the refrigerator uncut until we need them. Steaming and stir-frying are two methods that help conserve vitamin C content.
