Are frozen, canned or dried vegetables and fruit as healthy as fresh?
All vegetables and fruits are better than eating none. Check out the options you have available and by the least expensive but most nutritious ones (for example, lettuce has very few, if any, nutrients, but broccoli has many nutrients that we need in a day). Frozen, canned and dried vegetables and fruit are harvested and packed fresh from the field when they are most nutritious. Frozen fruit and vegetables can be cheaper and more convenient in larger amounts (which sometimes cost less) – take out just what you will eat and the rest can stay in the freezer for another meal.
