They lose their benefits and become dangerous: a doctor explained which products should not be frozen – they will turn into poison
Freezing is a convenient way to store food for a long time.
However, in this case, some products may lose not only their taste and appearance, but also their benefits.
Gastroenterologist Sergei Lopatin spoke in more detail about this, as reported by Doctor Peter .
In some cases, freezing may only affect the taste and appearance of the products.
This is especially true for vegetables, which contain a lot of water.
Among these, the expert named cabbage, cucumbers and zucchini. After freezing, their consistency will resemble a watery mush.
Also, don't put lettuce leaves and fresh herbs in the freezer. They may stop being crunchy and become soggy.
It is not advisable to freeze potatoes, otherwise they may acquire a sweetish taste.
In addition, you should not allow products to be frozen again. After all, not only will they lose their beneficial properties, but they can also cause harm if stored incorrectly.
At the same time, the specialist explained which products should not be frozen.
Among them, he named eggs. When frozen, the protein can expand, causing cracks to appear on the shell.
And this can be fraught with the penetration of various bacteria inside.
It is not recommended to put soft cheeses in the freezer. They can delaminate and become vulnerable to bacteria.
Also, under no circumstances should you refreeze previously defrosted meat or fish, as bacteria can also multiply in them.
Earlier, the doctor explained when tea becomes dangerous for the body.
