Why can overcooking increase nutrient loss?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because heat and excess water can reduce heat-sensitive and water-soluble vitamins

Overcooking exposes food to heat for a longer period and often uses a large amount of water. Heat-sensitive vitamins, especially vitamin C and some B vitamins, may be destroyed, while water-soluble vitamins can move into the cooking water and be discarded. Using less water and cooking for only the necessary time helps conserve nutrients.
