As a general rule (for anything not too high in fiber), the less cooked
the food is, the higher it's nutritional value.

While cooking will break very fibrous foods down making them easier to
digest, it can also destroy vitamin content.

Overcooked foods make me feel ill as I tend to have trouble digesting
them, especially overcooked eggs and red meats.

There is very little danger eating rare steak nowadays.
Cows and pigs are wormed during the raising process. Worms were the
biggest danger and still are with wild meat.

I won't eat wild meat rare.

It's why I generally just make sausage out of deer meat, or stew or pot
roast.
