Are organic frozen veggies just as good as fresh ones?!
I am sure that ideally people should each fresh veggies every day!. I'm a busy student and sometimes I get home late and all I have is frozen trader joe's veggies!. I really like their organic foursome mix, it has corn, carrots, green beans, and peas!.
I'm wondering if nutrient wise, frozen veggies still will give me what I need!. I'm not eating canned veggies or fruits!. I do eat lots of fresh fruit, but sometimes I worry I'm not eating enough veggies!.
I was thinking about cooking the frozen veggies and taking them in a thermos for lunch or something!. Thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is close to the same amount of roughage in both!. The frozen variety should be all right for you esp as a student with less time to coOK!.
A thermos is ok, if you want the veggies overcooked! Best bet is to pack them into an air tight container which can have the lid off to zap in the microwave to heat up!. Serve with a nice entre' if you are a veg/vegan!.!.!. include a salad and soup , with half a sandwich!
Otherwise add meats for protein!

If all you care about is the nutrients you intake for your health, then yes they're the same!. But if you're like many people who like it fresh, and after eating frozen foods for constantly get sick of the taste, then fresh would be the better choice!.
Of course this depends on individual products, some products could look healthy, but once you look at the ingredients and the nutritional facts, you realize it's not as healthy as it is portrayed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

frozen veggies are just frozen, it hurts the taste and the freezing may break down the cell walls (changing the taste) but it still has the nutrition!. As for organic versus anything else, i would look into it more if i were you!. I know each state has it's own laws on classifying organic!. Most state that pesticides cannot be used on the plants over x number of months or years so farmers quite often will dump 3 times the chemicals so that they last longer because organic foods can sell for more money!. As for if that makes them safer or more harmful, that is yet to be seen!. Eat well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
They're both just as healthy!
Some even say that frozen are better than fresh because they're frozen right away and are protected from excess light, heavy transportation, etc!. which can all take away vitamins!.
The only thing you'd need to watch out for is salt, depending on what kind you're eating!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hey!.
I Had The Same Problem A While Ago!.
Me!.!. I Like The Organic Foursome Mix Too!.
Of Course The More Colors (From The Veggies) The Better!.
Each Veggie Has Some Sort Of Blood!.
I Know It Sounds Gross!. But The Veggie's Blood Helps Us To Renew OUR Blood!.
But That Can Only Be Done If The Beggies Are Fresh!.!.
When It Is Frozen,
The Nutrients Are Deducted But Still , It Will Give You What You Need!.
Try To Eat As Many Fresh Ones As You Can!.
But If Not, Then Its Fine!Www@FoodAQ@Com
