Because aflatoxin is water-soluble, if boiled, it can basically filter out aflatoxin, so eating cooked peanuts is safer and easier to digest, and the loss of nutrients is minimal. If fried, aflatoxin cannot be destroyed, so cooking is the best.

Boiled peanuts can be called cheese in crops. Eating boiled peanuts is more nutritious than eating raw peanuts or fried peanuts. Why a study from Alabama shows that cooked peanuts contain more antioxidants than raw peanuts or fried peanuts. Antioxidants can prevent cancer, heart disease and chronic diseases, which is beneficial to human health. How do researchers divide peanuts bought in the market into several portions, cook them with and without shells, and then measure the nutritional components of each portion? It is found that if peanuts are cooked together with shells, peanut kernels will absorb some antioxidants in peanut shells during cooking, so they are more nutritious than those cooked without shells.
