It is no secret that fresh vegetables and fruits contain many nutrients that the body needs.

However, some foods can become even more beneficial after freezing.

Gastroenterologist Ekaterina Kashukh, as reported by Doctor Peter , explained which frozen products are just as beneficial as fresh ones.

Among such products, she named spinach. It has relatively few calories, but a lot of healthy fiber.

Moreover, it contains vitamins A, B9, K and C.

However, their quantity may decrease if spinach is kept in the refrigerator for a long time.

Therefore, freezing in this case will not only preserve all the nutrients, but also remove the bitterness inherent in this product.

Freezing will also be useful for beans and peas. These legumes are rich in protein and contain almost no harmful fats.

They contain fiber, various microelements and B vitamins.

When frozen, these products may contain more vitamins K and A.

Another source of valuable nutrients is broccoli.

This cabbage contains useful amino acids, vitamins C, K and B.

The expert drew attention to the fact that in the air the destruction of vitamin C can occur very quickly.

Therefore, you should not store broccoli in the refrigerator for a long time.

This product is also best frozen to preserve all the beneficial substances.

Freezing will also be extremely useful for berries, but they must be firm and without any damage.
