Raw vegetables are considered healthier than boiled, stewed, and especially canned ones.
But with corn, things are not so simple. The human body cannot fully digest raw corn grains. Therefore, in this regard, processing is only welcome.
Experts explained the benefits of corn and whether it can be consumed canned.
Benefits of Corn
Like any plant food, this vegetable contains various useful substances.
Corn can provide the human body with copper, magnesium and calcium.
It has been proven that it helps reduce cholesterol levels and the risk of developing atherosclerosis, but after processing, no more than 1/3 of the total amount of nutrients in corn grains remains.
Boiled or canned
It will be difficult for the average person to notice any particular difference in composition.
But rest assured that the substances that remain after heat treatment are quite sufficient to support the circulatory system.
This snack can generally be called healthy, both in terms of the composition of nutrients and in terms of
fight against hunger.
Contraindications
But the fight against cholesterol does not allow us to indulge in canned corn.
Unlike boiled corn, this product may contain a lot of sugar.
How much can you eat?
It is not recommended to eat more than 200 grams of canned vegetables per day.
Otherwise, all the beneficial properties of the vegetable crop will fade due to harmful sugar.
