We all know that it is very worthwhile to eat fruits and vegetables.

In addition to being tasty, a number of studies conducted over the years have come to the same conclusion - eating fruits and vegetables of all colors helps in weight loss, maintains good health, prevents diseases and helps the body recover from them.

Fruits and vegetables are actually the main and most important ingredient in our diet, which provides us with all the vitamins, minerals, proteins and dietary fiber we need.

In fact, low consumption or non-consumption of fruits and vegetables, harms your body in ways you never imagined.

We have always been educated that eating fresh is the best - especially when it comes to fruits and vegetables.

This is of course true, but few know that it is on the condition that the time elapsed from harvesting to eating the vegetable or fruit is only a few hours.

Of course, in practice, from the moment they are picked until they reach your refrigerator at home, the fruits and vegetables go through a journey of several days, sometimes with prolonged storage, partly refrigerated, during which they very significantly lose some of the nutrients and many essential components.

That's why the fresh vegetables you buy are healthy, but less so than you think.

They have nutritional values, but not necessarily maximums.

You may be surprised to hear that the solution is beyond frozen fruits and vegetables - which better maintain their nutritional and health values.

Studies conducted in recent years have found that frozen produce is rich in nutrients and even sometimes superior to fresh produce.

This is because time - vegetables and fruits selected for freezing are harvested at their peak ripening - while they are still full of vitamins and minerals.

They are frozen only a few hours after harvest, when they are still at the peak of freshness, so when eaten in the end they are rich in all their goodness.

Once a fruit is harvested it begins to lose nutrients, so the exact time it is harvested and the length of time that passes until after the harvest affects its nutritional value and the nutrients you put into your body when you eat from it.

Because most frozen fruits go into freezing shortly after being harvested, they have matured fully, which means they are full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and the freezing process “locks” their nutrients inside them.

In contrast, a large portion of the fresh produce in your supermarket is harvested or harvested at a very great distance and forced to travel in a truck to reach the shelves.

As a result it is possible that the produce was harvested before it reached its nutritional peak, and then artificially ripened during transport.

Another advantage is that frozen vegetables and fruits have a shelf life of about eight months, so they are less likely to go wrong if you forget about them, unlike your fresh vegetables and fruits which will spoil if you do not use them within a few days.

Their long shelf life makes them ideal for eating when the raw fruits or vegetables you love are out of season.

In the end, it is good to have a variety of options like frozen and fresh vegetables and fruits and most are a matter of preference, time and variety - because in terms of nutritional benefits, both are healthy options.
