Interesting fact

Cooking and meal fat influence carotenoid absorption

Carotenoids are held inside plant structures and are fat-soluble. Cooking can improve their release, and a modest amount of dietary fat helps form the micelles needed for absorption, although excessive heat can also destroy some carotenoid.
