Vitamin
B12, which helps to prevent anemia and is present in meat and to a lesser
extent in dairy products, is partly destroyed when the food is cooked for
six minutes in a microwave oven. This was reported in the journal
Agricultural & Food Chemistry in January, l998.
Of course, you can get this vitamin (also called cobalamin) via a multiple
vitamin capsule. This is a good alternative for vegetarians who might
otherwise develop a deficiency, which could result in anemia.
