Hi Charan,

That’s a very good question !

As we know that all the micronutrients exhibits some of its defined chemical structure, and we also know from the law of biochemistry that structure defines fuction.

So, in anut shell, the viatmins may loose its property and may not be useful in the process of metabolism.

But always keep in mind, digestive juices during process of digestion do not affect over vitamins in such a way that it looses its property.
