When you cut fruits and veg the knife oxidises the vit c in the fruit, so the smaller the cut the fruit the more vit c you lose. The same goes with boiling in water, the vit c is dissolved in to the water, this is why many people use the water they cook with.
Not completely true. If you are getting the fruits and veggies somewhere other than your local farmer or your backyard they only half the vitamins they started with anyway.
