A member asked:

After heating any food item, energy contained in it diminishes or remains same?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heat food: Although heat is an excellent way to reduce the risks of food borne infection, it directly alters many proteins, vitamins, elements and their availability to present themselves for absorption. The quick answer is found within the laws of thermodynamics, your food energy is transformed under heated conditions.
