Will the nutrients of onions be lost when using an onion peeler?

HOME > News
Using a peeler to peel onions usually results in very limited loss of nutrients. The nutritional components of onions are mainly distributed in the flesh, not the skin. When designing a peeler, efforts are usually made to minimize contact and damage to the fruit pulp to avoid unnecessary loss of nutrients.
 
The subcutaneous layer or layers of onion flesh may be removed during the peeling process, but the nutritional density of this part of the flesh is not significantly different from that of the internal flesh. Therefore, even if a small amount of fruit pulp is removed, the impact on the overall nutritional composition of onions is minimal.
 
However, any food processing process may cause a certain degree of nutrient loss, especially when exposed to air, light, or heat during the processing. The high efficiency and fast processing capability of the peeling machine actually help reduce the time that onions are exposed to air and heat, which may help retain nutrients to some extent.
 
In order to minimize the loss of nutrients, the precision and efficiency of the equipment should be ensured when using a peeler, as well as timely processing and refrigeration after peeling, to avoid prolonged exposure of onions to adverse environments. In addition, choosing fresh, high-quality onions and using them as soon as possible after peeling are also important factors in maintaining their nutritional value.
