When we do not have fresh products on hand and we do not want to go to the market, we usually have two options - either to order food from fast food chains or to use the food frozen in our freezer, which will take time.
Surely at the thought of both options you immediately chose to eat fast food. However, according to a new study, the nutritional value of frozen foods is much higher than that of food prepared in fast food restaurants.
Experts have proven that those of us who still have the time and patience to cook lunch with frozen food, eat fewer calories than those who have chosen to eat fast food. It should not be forgotten, however, that the consumption of both types of food is not very healthy and should be avoided.
In our hectic daily lives, we rarely have time for a complete and healthy diet, let alone cooking.
Therefore, if your next working day is busy and dynamic, you can put a few boxes of food in the freezer. This will not only save you time and effort, but will have a much more beneficial effect on your body than if you eat pizza or doner.
According to statistics, those of us who consume food from fast food chains consume 253 calories more than others who have no problem eating thawed foods.
In addition, people of the second type consume much more whole grains, vegetables and green leafy vegetables than fans of fast food.
Researchers from the Institute for Nutrition Research in the UK recently said that frozen fruits and vegetables contain many more nutrients than you can buy on the market, as long as they are grown in your own garden and frozen immediately after being detached.
All this evidence makes us prefer frozen foods in many cases and look at them with a different eye.
So the next time you're wondering what to have for dinner, think twice before dialing at a nearby Chinese restaurant.

Frozen Fruits And Vegetables - More Useful Than Fresh
Researchers from the Institute for Nutrition Research in the UK have come to an incredible conclusion: frozen fruits and vegetables contain many more nutrients than fresh. The reason lies in the fact that fresh fruits and vegetables do not reach the stalls as soon as they are picked, but only after a few days and due to this fact they lose many of their valuable substances.
Chilled Meat Is More Dangerous Than Frozen
Consumer organizations warn that chilled meat in local stores is often not fresh, as much of it has expired. The organizations report that many retail chains in our country fill the shelves with chilled frozen meat, which has expired. To give it a commercial look, store employees treat the meat with marinade and spices to mask the fact that the spoiled meat smells bad and sticks.
