Saw a TikTok claiming microwaving food kills all nutrients, so I asked my sister who's a dietitian and she laughed for a full minute before answering.

She explained that microwaving actually preserves more vitamins than boiling since it cooks faster with less water, and then pulled up three peer-reviewed studies from reputable journals to back it up has anyone else had to debunk this specific myth for family members?

Oh man, I read that microwaves work by vibrating water molecules, not destroying vitamins.
