Which is Healthier: Pressure Cooking or Boiling?

"Nutrient-Saving Cooking Methods: Does Pressure Cooking Really Reign Supreme? When it comes to preserving the delicate nutrients in our food, cooks have long debated the merits of pressure cooking versus boiling. A new wave of research suggests that pressure cooking may indeed have the upper hand, thanks to its ability to reduce cooking time, minimize water exposure, and limit oxidation.
