Lose Weight and Gain Energy

Tip #8: Canned and frozen

Processed fruits and vegetables are often canned or frozen just hours after harvest, so they retain nutrients better than fresh produce that has spent a long time in transit from farm to fork. Choose canned (or frozen without added sugar or excess sodium). Stir-fry or steam frozen vegetables, but warm canned vegetables in their own liquid - it typically contains one third of vegetable's nutrients.
