Are the prepackaged broccoli that you put in the microwave just as nutritious as raw broccoli?!
Answers:
The frozen veggies are most likely to be the more nutritious than the fresh!. Vegetables are picked at the optimum point and quickly blanched and then frozen!. So the maturation stops and the nutrients are captured in the veggie!. Fresh on the other hand continues to age after it has been harvested so it will continue to loose nutrients!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on what you believe!.!.
Frozen veggies are good for at least a year!.
I imagine fresh crowns are tossed after a month even though they are watered daily!.!.
As for nutritional value you can't test it at home,, and you have no idea what "your body" needs!.!.
So it is useless information!.!.
Too many veggies have the same vitamins and minerals as you receive in a slice of bread!.!.
You know if you eat a well balanced meal!.!.
After that,, any thought is just stress!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The frozen Broccoli have more nutritional value due to the swift processing!. The raw veggy however, still age and lose their nutrition!.So for the taste, money spent, and good health I take the frozen kind!.

Nutrition-wise I would think that either one would be alright, but just to double check you could go with the raw broccoli!. You know it's fresh and depending on where you get it, it may be on the cheaper side!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
