To properly nourish your body through food, first prepare and cook it correctly. Do not contaminate raw and fresh foods to prevent bacterial growth that decreases nutrients and causes sickness. Use different utensils for raw and cooked foods. Second, thoroughly cook foods at the proper temperature for each type of meat or produce to maintain optimal nutrient levels and avoid empty calories.

PREPARE AND COOK YOUR FOOD CORRECTLY

2. Do Not Contaminate Your Food
First, make sure to prepare your food correctly.
For example, make sure you do not contaminate your food by
separating your raw and fresh foods to avoid bacteria growth.
When bacteria develops, the nutrient level is more likely to decrease
and that can also cause you to develop sickness when you eat the
food.

3. Use Different Utensils
Make sure to clean your cutting board, plate, knife, spoon, or
whatever you use to prepare your food thoroughly especially if
you use the same knife to cut raw and fresh food.
It is best to use different knifes for raw foods and fresh foods.

4. Cook Your Food Correctly
Second, make sure your food is cooked correctly and thoroughly.
For example, different types of meat require different levels of heat
to cook properly, so make sure you know the correct cooking
temperature for each meat.
It is the same with fresh produce.
For example, if you overcook certain vegetables, the nutrients might
be gone and that means you are just eating empty calories.
Empty calories mean there is no nutrient value in the food.
