    There’s probably a small loss of some nutrients (the heat breaks some chemical bonds). The benefit would probably be somewhere between negligible and marginal before you factor in the risk of food poisoning.

      Studies have shown no difference in nutritional value. So it’s a net negative across the board.

      It’s not healthier, it has a higher risk of pathogens, and a much shorter shelf life, all for usually more cost at the store. It’s a perfect grift for the anti-vax, chemicals=bad people.
