Are the enzymes or antioxidants not destroyed during baking?

VITAMINS AND MINERALS

Dehydration does not cause any change in fiber or iron content. While the use of heat and air, and blanching, in the dehydration process can destroy vitamins A and C, you can retain much of the vitamin A by using a controlled heat method of dehydration. Blanching results in some loss of vitamins A and C, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin; however, blanching also can reduce the loss of these vitamins during storage and rehydration. Sulfite treatments, which are used to destroy enzymes during vegetable dehydration, prevent the loss of some vitamins, although it causes the loss of water-soluble vitamins and minerals, such as B-complex and C vitamins.

Apparently they do retain their nutrition.... I answered my own questions lol

Just eat the dam things. Kale chips in stores are ground up then reformed paste made into chip..I eat a bunch a day . I use grill and flat pan if hot out and steaks next in line.

Kale is about the most nutritious thing you can eat. This recipe makes it easier to eat the stuff.
