try adding some raw squash to your salad.
Would you rather cook your summer squash
instead? Don't worry. Vitamin B6 in vegetables
is relatively stable during cooking. About
85%-90% of the B6 remains, depending on
the style of cooking.
Try some in your favorite
soup, stir-fry or baked dish.
So next time
you go to the market, add summer squash to
your shopping list, and keep your brain happy
and healthy!
