"You’ve Been Lied To About Fresh Veggies! 😱🥦❄️"

🚨 Nutrition myth busted by a registered dietitian! 🚨 Fresh isn’t always best—frozen & canned veggies can actually be more nutritious! 🥦❄️🥫 They’re picked at peak ripeness and preserved right away, keeping more vitamins and minerals than ‘fresh’ veggies that are often picked unripe and lose nutrients during transport. Plus, they’re budget-friendly, last longer, and make healthy eating so much easier. So don’t skip the freezer and canned aisle! 😉💪 ⚠️ It’s good to note that there are differences between the nutritional value of canned and frozen products. Canned and frozen vegetables 🥦🥕🌽 start off equally nutritious, but processing affects their nutrient levels. Frozen produce is blanched (briefly cooked in hot water) ♨️, which slightly reduces some nutrients. Canning 🥫, on the other hand, involves more processing, leading to greater nutrient loss—except for certain fruits like tomatoes 🍅 and pumpkins 🎃, which retain more benefits. If you choose canned veggies, look for options without added sugars or sodium 🚫🧂. Also, remember that many nutrients stay in the canning liquid 💧. Draining and rinsing can lower sodium but may also wash away valuable nutrients. At the end of the day, the most important thing is to eat your veggies! 🥗 Aim for at least 2 ½ cups per day for a healthy diet. ✅💪 Nutrition counseling services in Hatfield PA, accept insurance.
