Frozen Vegetables Are More Nutritious Than Fresh vegetable
According to study conducted by UK-based Institute of Food Research, Frozen vegetables are 45 percent more nutritious that fresh vegetables.
Nutritionist Dr Sarah Schenker said, “The nutritional content of fresh vegetables begins to deteriorate from the minute they are picked. This means that by the time they end up on our plate, although we may think we’re reaping the vegetable’s full nutritional benefits this is often not the case. With frozen vegetables, where vitamins are locked in at the point of freezing, there’s no need to worry about how nutritious they are”.
Fresh vegetables take a fortnight to reach the table after being picked from the farm, though the common belief of 80 percent shoppers was that fresh vegetables in supermarkets are not more than four days old. Important nutrients in fresh vegetables diminish between the process of harvesting, supermarket stay, home, and the actual consumption.

This is a really interesting article. I suppose for 1st world countries, this is very true. Here in Peru, we’re fortunate to buy most of our produce at farmers’ markets, where the majority has been brought in fresh from harvest the day before.
