New research suggests that the nutritional value of certain frozen fruits and vegetables are generally equal to fresh produce
Research, recently published in Elsevier’s Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, reveals that the nutritional value of certain frozen fruits and vegetables are generally equal to fresh produce. In fact, the amounts of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and folates of some frozen fruits and vegetables were greater than fresh-stored produce.
Conducted by the University of Georgia (UGA) in partnership with the Frozen Food Foundation, the research compares the nutrient content of eight commonly purchased frozen and fresh fruits and vegetables.
