Cooking up healthy Instant Pot recipes

Whatever diet you’re following – or if you’re just trying to eat better – Instant Pot cooking is a terrific way to help you cook healthier meals.

Why? Because you can put a meal on the table faster since Instant Pots take a lot less time to cook than conventional methods! Don’t we all complain that cooking healthier takes too much effort?

The other benefit with Instant Pot (or pressure cooking) is that it preserves vitamins and minerals, resulting in healthier meals!

That’s because the Instant Pot saturates food with steam, which retains the bright colors, nutrients, and phytochemicals in your food.

Instant Pot health benefits

Some studies show that cooking food with water-based methods like the Instant Pot may reduce the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes.

When using an Instant pot, you preserve heat-sensitive nutrients by reducing cook times and using less water than other cooking methods.

It’s the best method for preserving ascorbic acid and beta-carotene when cooking spinach.

Cooking grains and legumes in your Instant Pot makes them more digestible by breaking down proteins and reducing phytic acid and lectins. (Phytic acid and lectins can interfere in the absorption of nutrients.)

Finally, by creating an environment that boils water at higher than 100 degrees C, Instant Pot pressure cookers can destroy harmful bacteria.
