Consuming both raw and cooked vegetables will help ensure that you get a greater variety of antioxidants. Some vegetables, such as carrots, asparagus, cabbage, mushrooms, and spinach, offer a greater concentration of antioxidants when cooked compared to when eaten raw (if they’re prepared by steaming or boiling, that is).

And it's easier to raise the rent in apartments. [2004] - Mike Summey
